IXTEODUCTION. 


The  only  apology  I  have  to  offer  for  appearing  before  you  in  an 
extra,  instead  of  a  "Bridegroom  the  Second,"  will  be  found  in  the  fol- 
lowing: 

When  I  wrote  the  "  Bridegroom  "  I  had  no  doubt  but  that  a  sufficient 
number  of  them  would  be  sold  to  enable  me  to  write  out  and  have  pub- 
lished the  remainder  of  my  work.     But  in  this  I  have  been  disappointed, 
not  having  sold  enough  to  pay  one  fourth  the  cost  of  publication.     I 
have  always  known  that  God's  children  have  been  poor  in  all  ages  of 
the  world ;  but,  as  we  are  living  in  the  Golden  Age,  when  the  streets  of 
^the  New  Jerusalem  were  to  be  paved  with  gold,  I  thought  that  some  of 
es=God's  children  might  have  got  a  little  of  the  precious  metal ;  but  in 
^that,  as  above,  I  have  been  disappointed. 

^  This  has  led  me  to  make  another  attempt  in  the  form  of  an  extra, 
::phoping  that  some  of  them  may  fall  into  the  hands  of  God's  children 
who  have  a  little  of  the  god  of  the  age  to  spare  for  this  purpose,  or  in 
other  words,  that  a  sufficient  number  might  sell  to  enable  me  to  prose- 
cute my  work  to  completion.  This  pamphlet  will  contain  what  will  be 
the  seventh  chapter  in  my  work,  and,  if  ever  published,  will  occupy  its 
proper  position  in  the  work.  It  will  therefore  be  written  out  with  its 
reference  to  other  chapters.     Let  this  suffice  on  this  head. 

Before  proceeding  to  my  illustration,  and  to  be  the  better  understood 
therein,  I  must  notice  the  interpretation  of  Divines  in  general  on  the 
Image  placed  before  Nebuchadnezzar.  This  is  the  more  imperative 
from  the  fact  that  the  toes  of  the  Image  are,  as  it  were,  the  gate  for  the 
Lord  to  enter  in  order  to  set  up  his  kingdom,  inasmuch  as  his  kingdom 
is  to  be  set  up  in  the  days  of  the  kings  who  rule  the  four  kingdoms 
that  represent  the  image. 

The  account  of  this  Image  will  be  found  in  the  2d  chapter  of  Daniel, 
commencing  with  the  31st  verse.     This  was  the  image  of  a  man,  with 


a  head  of  gold,  arms  and  breast  of  silver,  belly  and  thighs  of  brass, 
legs  of  iron,  and  feet  of  iron  and  clay.  Daniel's  illustration  was, 
Nebuchadnezzar  the  head  of  gold,  and  after  him  another  kingdom,  but 
inferior  to  his  kingdom,  and  still  a  third  kingdom  of  brass,  which  should 
bear  rule  over  all  the  earth,  closing  with  a  fourth  kingdom  strong  as 
iron,  nevertheless  it  should  be  divided,  and  break  in  pieces  and  bruise. 
The  toes  of  the  image  are  a  part  of  this  kingdom,  which  were  of  iron 
and  clay,  and  do  not  cleave  together — not  solid,  like  the  feet.  And  in 
the  days  of  the  four  kings  which  shall  rule  these  four  kingdoms,  shall 
the  God  of  heaven  set  up  a  kingdom,  which  shall  never  be  destroyed, 
and  the  kingdom  shall  not  be  left  to  other  people,  but  it  shall  break  in 
pieces  and  consume  all  these  kingdoms,  and  it  shall  stand  for  ever. 
Such  is  a  short  hand  account  of  the  image,  and  the  interpretation  of 
Daniel. 

All  commentators  that  I  have  read,  have  invariably  agreed  on  the 
subject  of  the  image,  agreeing  that  the  four  empires  mentioned  in  Dan- 
iel, were  the  four  kingdoms  which  represented  the  image,  viz:  the 
Chaldean  Monarchy,  or  Babylon,  the  Medo-Persian  Empire,  the  Grecian 
Empire,  and  the  Eoman  Empire.  These  were  the  empires  which  they 
say  represented  the  image.  I  will  show  you  in  a  very  short  space  of 
time  that  there  is  not  the  first  word  of  truth  in  it. 

First. — The  four  empires  did  not  exist  at  the  same  time,  and  there- 
fore could  not  represent  the  image.  Nebuchadnezzar  saw  the  image 
whole  in  all  its  parts,  save  the  toes,  and  these  he  did  not  see  at  all,  but 
Daniel  saw  them  in  the  interpretation.  Now,  as  Nebuchadnezzar  saw 
the  image  connected  in  its  three  parts,  which  united  the  four  different 
kinds  of  metals,  so  the  four  kingdoms  that  represent  the  image  must  all 
exist  on  the  earth  at  the  same  time,  and  as  this  was  not  the  case  with 
those  four  empires,  the  interpretation  of  those  men  fall  to  the  ground, 
harmless. 

Second, — The  image  being  the  image  of  a  man,  and  a  man's  head 
controlling  the  motion  of  his  whole  body  as  well  as  the  feet,  implies 
not  only  that  those  four  kingdoms  must  exist  at  the  same  time,  but  that 
they  must  be  ruled  by  one  man  for  a  term  of  years,  in  both  law  and  gos- 
pel, and  this  could  never  be  the  case  with  four  kingdoms  that  did  not 
exist  at  the  same  time,  another  evidence  of  the  erroneous  interpretation. 

Third. — These  men  were  wrong  for  another  reason,  viz  :  They  de- 
stroy the  image  head  foremost,  from  head  to  foot,  whilst  Daniel  destroys 
it  from  foot  to  head.  Their  interpretation  makes  the  seed  of  destruc- 
tion in  the  golden  head  by  a  rebellion  within  the  head  of  gold,  in  the 
germ  of  the  Medo-Persian  Empire.     She  conquers  the  golden  head,  and 


places  the  arms  and  breast  in  its  place.  And  thus  the  Greeks  do  the 
same.  This  places  the  belly  and  thighs  of  brass  in  place  of  the  silver. 
The  same  with  the  legs  of  iron,  and  feet  of  iron  and  clay.  This  forces 
the  whole  of  the  image  into  the  golden  head,  and  nothing  visible  but 
the  legs  of  iron,  and  feet  of  iron  and  clay.  Thus,  in  place  of  estab- 
lishing the  image  in  four  kingdoms,  they  destroy  it  all  but  the  legs  and 
feet.  Now,  suppose  you  would  take  a  man  and  jam  his  whole  body 
into  his  head,  so  that  nothing  of  him  would  appear  but  his  legs  and 
feet,  what  sort  of  an  image  would  he  be  ?  Just  so  with  the  interpreta- 
tion of  these  men. 

Fourth. — I  will  now  prove  that  it  will  be  utterly  impossible  to  torture 
those  four  kingdoms  into  the  image.  In  Daniel's  interpretation  we  have 
the  following  words,  2d  chapter,  37th  and  38th  verses  :  "  Thou,  O  king, 
art  a  king  of  kings,  for  the  God  of  Heaven  hath  given  thee  a  kingdom, 
power,  and  strength,  and  glory.  And  wheresoever  the  children  of 
men  dwell,  the  beasts  of  the  field  and  the  fowls  of  the  heavens  hath  he 
given  into  thine  hand,  and  hath  made  thee  ruler  over  them  all.  Thou 
art  this  head  of  gold."  You  will  see  by  this  language  that  God  had 
given  Nebuchadnezzar  all  the  then  known  world,  wherever  the  chil- 
dren of  men  dwelled.  Hence  it  took  all  of  the  old  world  to  constitute 
the  head  of  gold.  Consequently  these  four  empires  were^not  four  king- 
doms at  all,  only  one  kingdom  changing  rulers  four  times  by  conquest, 
each  one  of  the  four  Generals  had  the  golden  head  in  possession,  each 
one  had  the  whole  of  the  then  known  world  in  his  possession.  The 
new  world — this  continent — had  not  at  that  time  been  known  by  the 
children  of  men  ;  at  least  this  is  implied  in  the  language.  In  my  illus- 
tration'I  will  prove  to  you  that  this  changing  hands  of  the  golden  head 
four  times  makes  what  is  in  the  Scriptures  termed  "  four  heads  of  the 
dragon,"  and  not  four  kingdoms,  or  empires. 

I  will  here  close  my  remarks  on  this  part  of  the  subject,  and  pay  a 
special  compliment  on  a  recent  work  written  by  one  Dr.  Pitts,  a  South- 
ern clergyman,  I  believe.  This  work  bears  the  title  of  "Armageddon." 
I  had  this  work  in  my  hand  some  two  years  since,  and  hastily  glanced 
over  it,  and  found  the  Doctor  took  the  same  views  in  regard  to  the  four 
empires  as  other  commentators  had  taken.  But  he  making  closer  cal- 
culation than  others,  found  out  by  some  peculiar  foresight  that  the 
Government  of  the  United  States  was  the  kingdom  of  God  spoken  of 
by  Daniel,  which  will  be  farther  noticed  presently. 

The  Doctor  admits  the  four  beasts  seen  by  Daniel  in  his  first  vision 
{7th  chapter)  were  the  types  of  the  four  kingdoms  which  was  to  repre- 
sent the  image,  and  that  the  four  empires  mentioned  above  represented 
the  beasts,  which  made  Pagan  Rome  the  beast  with  ten  horns.     This 


6 

other  Divines  also  admit.  The  Doctor  next  tells  his  readers  they  must 
keep  in  mind  that  Rome  is  the  head  of  the  beast ;  but  he  forgot  to  tell 
them  that  the  beast  was  the  iron  legs,  and  feet  of  iron  and  clay,  of  the 
image.  He  then  goes  on  and  states  that  after  Pagan  Eome  fell  into  ten 
kingdoms  that  those  kingdoms  represented  the  horns  of  the  beast.  Now, 
what  an  absurdity  this  is.  Who  ever  heard  of  a  beast  whose  horns 
grew  out  after  he  was  dead ;  most  certainly  no  one.  When  such  a 
beast  can  be  found  then  it  will  be  time  enough  to  believe  the  Doctor. 
He  also  says  the  same  in  regard  to  the  toes.  To  this  I  make  the  same 
answer  as  to  the  horns.  Most  certainly  no  one  will  say  that  Pagan 
Rome  was  alive  as  such  after  she  had  fell  into  ten  kingdoms.  Then  of 
course  the  beast  was  dead.  Again  :  Who  ever  heard  of  a  beast  having 
his  horns  in  the  feet ;  for  if  the  Doctor  is  correct  the  horns  are  in  the 
feet  of  the  beast.  Again:  The  Doctor  did  not  tell  his  readers  that  the 
image  was  the  type  of  a  man  as  the  dragon  of  the  Scriptures,  called 
the  eighth,  but  of  the  seven,  as  in  Rev.  17:  11.  Had  he  had  done  this 
he  would  have  placed  the  horns  of  the  beast  at  the  knee-joint  of  the 
dragon,  as  he  says  keep  in  mind  that  Rome  is  the  head  of  the  beast,  and 
the  beast  the  iron  legs  and  feet  of  the  image,  would  place  the  ten  horns 
at  the  knee  of  the  dragon.  I  would  like  to  see  a  man  with  horns  at  the 
knees,  or  brains,  which  may  be  the  same. 

Again  :  The  Doctor  found  out  by  the  same  rule  of  calculation  that  the 
independence  of  the  United  States  was  to  be  declared  on  the  Fourth  of 
July,  1776,  at  precisely  12  o'clock.  He  makes  the  calculation  from  the 
prophecy  of  Dahiel,  and  says  that  a  Christian  Republic  is  the  kingdom 
prophesied  of  by  Daniel,  as  though  Daniel  did  not  know  the  difference 
between  a  Republic  and  a  Kingdom.  I  would  very  much  like  if  the 
Doctor  would  explain  how  God  did  set  up  this  Republic  in  the  days  of 
the  kings  of  those  four  empires.  I  would  like  to  know  how  God  or 
anybody  else  could  set  up  a  kingdom  or  republic  in  the  days  of  certain 
kings,  when  those  kings  had  been  dead  more  than  two  thousand  years. 
If  any  one  can  tell  how  this  can  be  done  he  can  raise  the  "Aquila" 
without  help. 

Again :  I  would  like  for  the  Doctor  to  explain  and  tell  how  the  set- 
ting up  of  this  Republic  broke  in  pieces  and  consumed  all  those  king- 
doms Daniel  said  that  the  kingdom  set  up  by  the  God  of  Heaven 
would  break  in  pieces  and  consume  all  those  kingdoms,  and  it  would 
stand  forever.  This  Republic  does  not  look  much  like  as  though  it 
would  stand  forever.  These  are  inconsistencies  which  can  never  be 
reconciled. 

I  will  here  close  my  remarks  on  this  subject,  promising  the  reader 
something  more  consistent  than  anything  above.     You  must  not  under- 


stand  me  as  finding  fault  with  these  interpretations,  or  in  other  words, 
with  the  men  for  making  the  interpretations.  They  were  all  right,  and 
in  their  proper  place — all  suitable  for  the  ages  in  which  they  were 
made.  Moses  put  a  thick  veil  over  the  people,  which  Paul  says  is  over 
the  people  unto  this  day.  The  Bible  being  a  book  of  types,  we  are  now 
in  the  days  referred  to  by  Paul.  Hence  this  veil  cannot  be  pierced  but 
by  the  spirit  which  spoke  the  Bible  in  man.  So  these  men  are  not  to 
blame. 


THE  DISPATCH  FKOM  THE  HEAVENLY  TELEGRAPH. 


Now,  in  order  to  make  this  dispatch  plain  to  you,  I  must  go  back  to 
the  first  Adam,  and  trace  the  subject  down,  in  order  to  point  out  the 
connection  between  the  first  and  second  Adam.  As  stated  in  the  Bride- 
groom, Eve  was  taken  out  of  Adam  in  the  Garden  'of  the  Lord ;  after 
which,  the  man  was  driven  out  of  the  Garden,  but  the  woman  was  not. 
Gen.  3,  24.  This  implies  that  both  Cain  and  Abel  were  conceived  in  the 
Garden.  As  also  proved  in  the  Bridegroom,  that  Adam  was  natural, 
and  Ev^  spiritual,  of  the  Spirit  of  God;  and  Cain  born  to  represent 
Adam,  and  Abel  to  represent  Eve.  Cain  kills  Abel,  because  Abel's  offer- 
ing had  been  accepted  by  the  Lord,  and  his  rejected.  God  then  cursed 
Cain,  as  stated,  which  transferred  the  spirit  of  the  old  serpent  upon 
Cain,  and  turns  him  black.  He  then  put  a  mark  upon  him,  which  was 
the  kink  in  the  hair,  and  thus  the  three  stand — God,  Christ,  and  the 
Devil.  Adam,  Cain,  and  Abel  could  not  stand  Father,  Son,  and  Ghost, 
for  reasons  which  I  cannot  state  here.  They  only  stand  a  type  of 
Father,  Son,  and  Ghost.  This  shows  that  the  spirit  of  the  woman  was 
dead  in  Cain,  or  the  ghost  dead  in  the  Devil.  Jesus,  who  had  been  the 
first,  Adam  says,  the  devil  Avas  a  murderer  from  the  beginning,  and  as 
Cain  was  the  first  murderer  he  was  the  devil  referred  to.  God  then 
traces  the  generations  of  Cain  up  to  where  they  build  cities,  and  work 
in  iron  and  brass.  Then  he  leaves  Cain  and  commences  with  Adam  and 
Eve  again.  Gen.  4,  25,  26.  This  brings  Adam  and  Eve  on  this  side  of  Cain 
and  Abel,  or  Cain  and  Dead  Ghost,  which  places  them  as  follows :  Cain 
farthest  East,  Dead  Ghost  next,  Adam  next,  and  Eve  farthest  West. 
Keep  these  things  in  mind. 

We  now  come  down  to  the  call  of  Abram  and  Sarai  his  wife,  when  he 
changes  the  name  of  both — one  to  Abraham,  the  other  to  Sarah.  They 
now  stand  at  the  head  of  God's  natural  kingdom — the  Jewish  nation — 
the  representatives  of  Adam  and  Eve  at  the  head  of  God's  natural  man. 
You  can  see  here  the  reason  God  had  for  tracing  Cain  up  to  working  in 
iron  and  brass,  and  commencing  with  Adam  and  Eve.  Placing  Adam 
and  Eve  on  this  side  of  Cain  and  the  Dead  Ghost,  they  could  bei-eplaced 
by  Abraham  and  Sarah  without  interfering  with  Cain  and  the  Ghost. 
You  will  also  see  that  God  does  not  replace  Cain  and  the  Ghost  on  this 
side  of  the  flood  by  call.  But  he  promises  Abraham  an  heir,  which  was 
born  according  to  promise,  and  was  the  first  white  child  ever  born.  Now 
mark.  Isaac  occupies  the  same  place  on  this  side  of  the  flood  that  Cain 
occupied  on  the  other  side ;  he  stands  first  on  this  side  of  Mother  Sarah 
as  did  Cain  first  on  this  side  of  Mother  Eve.  God  now  stands  in  Isaac, 
and  Esau  and  Jacob  are  born  unto  him.    He  calls  Jacob  his  first  born 


son,  after  his  name  is  changed,  as  had  been  those  of  Abraham  and  Sarah. 
Ex.  4,  22.  This  lets  Esau  pass  off  as  Live  Ghost  for  the  devil,  in  the 
place  of  Abel.  Esau  was  third  with  Abraham,  as  had  been  Abel  third 
with  Adam.  This  brings  Jacob  into  Esau's  place  as  third  with  Abra- 
ham, and  completes  the  Trinity  in  the  natural  kingdom,  in  Abraham, 
Isaac,  and  Jacob,  as  also  gives  a  live  ghost  on  this  side  of  the  flood  for 
the  devil.  You  will  also  see  in  this  that  whilst  Abraham  is  the  called  of 
God,  Esau  is  the  descendant  of  God  in  Isaac.  Keep  these  things  in 
mind. 

Before  going  any  farther  I  will  explain  why  Esau  becomes  live  ghost 
for  the  devil.  Abel  being  the  third  man  on  earth,  he  stands  as  ghost  in 
number,  but  was  only  typical,  as  I  shall  show  in  the  chapter  on  the 
Trinity.  God  calls  Abraham;  this  restores  the  spirit  of  the  ghost  to 
him;  the  spirit  of  the  ghost  being  the  spirit  of  the  woman,  which  was 
the  spirit  of  God.  Hence  we  find  when  Abraham  dies  the  word  gave 
up  the  ghost,  is  prefixed  to  the  word  death,  as  in  Gen.  25,  8.  The  same 
is  said  of  Isaac.  Gen.  35,  29.  And  the  same  of  Jacob.  Gen.  49,  33. 
You  will  see  that  the  word  died  is  not  connected  with  Jacob's  departure. 
Jacob  was  the  third  spirit  in  the  Trinity,  and  was  smooth  skin,  which 
means  he  in  the  place  of  the  woman.  Gen.  27,  11,  This  shows  that 
God  was  in  Jacob,  as  the  word  died  is  not  mentioned  there.  The  same 
is  said  of  Jesus.  He  gave  up  the  ghost,  but  he  did  not  die,  which  shows 
that  he  had  been  Jacob,  and  as  the  smooth  skin  represented  the  woman, 
Jesus  must  be  the  seed  of  the  woman,  set  in  type  by  Abel  who  repre- 
sented the  woman.  Hence  the  spirit  of  Abel  was  represented  by  Jacob 
the  smooth  skin  as  Ghost  for  God's  kingdom,  and  will  be  by  Jesus  as 
Holy  Ghost  for  God's  spiritual  kingdom — the  seed  of  the  immortal  king- 
dom. Again  :  Now,  in  proof  of  this,  let  us  go  back  and  see  what  is  said  of 
the  first  Fathers.  It  is  said  of  Adam  that  he  lived  nine  hundred  and 
thirty  years  and  died.  The  same  is  said  in  regard  to  all  the  Fathers,  as 
in  Gen.,  5th  chapter.  Now,  why  was  it  not  said  that  they  gave  up  the 
ghost  and  died  ?  The  ghost  is  not  named  in  connection  with  the  death 
of  any  of  them.  Answer,  because  the  ghost  was  dead  before  they  were 
born,  and  dead  in  the  devil,  too,  at  that.  This  being  the  case,  it  was 
essential  that  a  man  should  be  born  as  live  ghost  for  the  devil.  This 
was  brought  about  by  God  in  Isaac,  when  two  were  born  at  a  birth — 
one  as  live  ghost  for  the  devil,  the  other  as  live  ghost  for  God.  Now,  I 
hope  you  will  be  able  to  understand  the  matter. 

We  now  pass  on  up  the  Tabernacle  in  the  Wilderness.  Ex.  26,  33. 
Here  you  will  see  that  the  Tabernacle  was  divided  into  parts,  or  apart- 
ments, by  a  veil  stretched  across  it  in  the  centre.  The  outer,  or  the  first 
part  on  entering  the  Tabernacle,  was  the  Holy,  and  the  inner  part, 
behind  the  veil,  the  Most  Holy;  and  in  the  27th  chapter,  9th  verse,  is  the 
Court  placed  on  the  south  side  of  the  Tabernacle.  This  makes  the  third 
apartment.  The  first  represents  the  Land  of  Eden,  the  second  the 
Garden  of  the  Lord,  and  the  third  the  Land  of  Nod.  This  Tabernacle 
was  typical  of  the  natural  and  spiritual  kingdoms  of  God;  whilst  the 
Court  was  a  type  of  the  dragon's  kingdom,  or  the  devil's  kingdom.  The 
most  holy  place  being  in  the  middle,  it  stands  the  representative  of  Eve, 
between  God  and  the  devil.  Eve  being  of  the  Spirit  of  God,  it  stands  as 
God's  place.  The  Mercy  Seat  being  in  it  implies  that  it  is  God's,  and  the 
veil  being  before  this  place  implies  the  absence  of  God  for  a  given  time. 
This  is  the  veil  that  Moses  put  over  the  people,  alluded  to  by  Paul,  and 
is  the  veil  over  them  unto  this  day,  and  the  only  veil  that  is  over  the 
people.  I

Again  :  Aaron  was  chosen  as  the  first  spirit  in  the  Second  Trinity,  and 
be  and  his  sons  were  consecrated  High  Priests  before  God  in  the  holy 
place  in  the  Tabernacle.  lie  entered  once  a  year  within  the  veil  to  make 
restitution  for  the  sins  of  the  people.  They  made  for  Aaron  and  his 
sons  bonnets  for  glory  and  for  beauty,  as  in  Ex.  28,  43,  and  29,  9. 
Making  bonnets  for  Aai'on  and  his  sons  implies  that  the  spirit  of  the 
w^oman,  which  is  the  Spirit  of  God,  entered  the  head  of  God's  natural 
kingdom,  and  that  his  sons  were  to  be  his  successors.  The  priesthood 
was  to  remain  with  the  descendants  of  Aaron,  who  was  a  descendant  of 
Levi,  as  well  as  was  Moses. 

We  now  pass  on  to  the  prophecy  of  Daniel,  where  God  gives  his  kino-- 
dom  to  N"ebuchadnezzar,  and  not  only  his  kingdom  but  all  the  then 
known  world,  and  makes  him  ruler  over  them  all,  as  shown  above.  This 
mark  places  Nebuchadnezzar  in  the  spirit  of  the  first  Adam,  who  was 
Lord  of  all  the  then  known  world.  The  spirit  of  the  woman  beino-  in 
the  head  of  God's  kingdom,  and  then  given  to  Nebuchadnezzar,  makes 
him  the  golden  head  of  the  imago,  the  image  standing  the  representa- 
tive of  Adam  with  Eve  in  him.  Eve  being  the  golden  head  in  him,  as  I 
shall  prove  to  you  before  I  get  through.  Nebuchadnezzar  standino-  as 
Adam  with  the  woman  in  him,  goes  right  to  work  and  makes  a  golden 
god,  and  sets  it  up  on  the  plains  of  Dura.  Now,  if  the  woman  had  not 
been  in  Nebuchadnezzar,  he  could  not  have  genei-ated  a  god,  as  did 
Adam  a  devil  after  the  woman  was  out  of  him.  You  will  see  now  from 
this  forward  that  it  will  be  all  a  spiritual  matter,  represented  by  king- 
doms, and  not  b}^  the  birth  of  children,  natural. 

In  the  3d  chapter  will  be  found  an  account  of  the  Golden  Image ;  it 
was  sixty  cubits  high  and  six  cubits  broad.  This  was  a  monster  of  a 
god  to  worship ;  but,  nevertheless,  all  the  then  known  world  was  called 
on  to  fall  down  and  worship  this  god,  and  they  all  obeyed  except  th(3 
four  Hebrews,  three  of  whom  were  cast  into  the  fiery  furnace,  heated  seven 
times  hotter  than  was  wont  to  be,  out  of  which  they  came  not  having 
the  smell  of  fire  about  them.  A  fourth  person  was  seen  in  the  furnace, 
like  unto  the  Son  of  God.  This  personage  was  the  type  of  Jesus,  and 
was  the  protection  of  the  three  Hebrews,  of  the  same  spirit  given  to 
Nebuchadnezzar,  which  constituted  him  the  Golden  Head  of  the  Image. 
Keep  these  things  in  mind. 

In  the  4th  chapter,  Nebuchadnezzar  has  another  dream,  in  which  he 
becomes  a  Great  Tree,  whose  bight  reached  up  to  Heaven,  and  the  sight 
thereof  to  the  ends  of  the  earth.  A  watcher,  a  holy  one,  came  down 
from  Heaven,  and  cut  the  tree  down,  and  left  an  iron  and  brass  band  on 
the  stump  of  the  tree,  in  the  tender  grass  of  the  field,  when  Nebuchad- 
nezzar became  a  beast  for  seven  years,  after  which  his  reason  returned  to 
him  again,  when  he  acknowledged  the  God  of  Daniel,  saying,  that  He 
ruled  the  armies  of  Heaven  as  well  as  the  inhabitants  of  earth,  and  none 
could  stay  his  hand,  or  sa}^  unto  Him,  What  doest  Thou  ?  Now,  remark, 
Nebuchadnezzar  is  no  longer  the  Golden  Head  of  the  Image,  but  a  beast, 
and  consequently  a  beast's  head  from  this  out.  I  willshow  you  this 
whole  matter  to  be  typical,  and  that  Nebuchadnezzar,  from  that  time, 
stands  in  the  spirit  of  Cain,  who  had  the  spirit  of  the  serpent  transferred 
to  him,  and  was  more  subtle  than  any  beast  of  the  field.  This  places 
Nebuchadnezzar  in  the  spirit  of  the  devil. 

In  the  5th  chapter,  we  find  Nebuchadnezzar  takes  his  father's  throne. 
This  Belshazzar  stands  in  the  place  of  the  Dead  Ghost  in  connection 
with  Nebuchadnezzar.  Had  not  a  Live  Ghost  for  the  devil  descended 
from  God  in  Isaac,  in  Esau,  Nebuchadnezzar  could  have  had  no  son  to 


12 

take  his  place.  Hence  he  stands  as  Live  Ghost  for  Nebuchrftinezzar.  He 
did  not  occupy  the  throne  long  before  he  made  a  great  feast  to  his  lords, 
when  he  drank  wine  with  his  wives  and  concubines  out  of  the  cups  of 
the  Lord's  House,  when  the  hand-writing  was  seen  on  the  wall  of  his 
palace.  This  made  the  joints  of  his  loins  loose,  and  his  knees  smote  one 
against  the  other.  Daniel  interpreted  the  hand-writing  on  the  wall,  the 
sum  of  which  was,  Belshazzar  was  "weighed  in  the  balance  and  found 
wanting,  and  his  kingdom  given  to  the  Medes  and  Persians,"  and  that 
night  was  Belshazzar  slain. 

In  the  6th  chapter,  we  have  an  account  of  Daniel  himself  being  cast 
into  the  lions'  den.  He  was  put  in  at  the  mouth  of  the  den,  and  a  stone 
was  rolled  to  the  mouth  of  the  den  and  sealed  with  the  signet  of  the 
king,  and  the  signet  of  his  Lords.  jSfext  morning  Daniel  was  taken  out 
unharmed,  and  his  accusers  cast  in,  when  their  bones  were  broken  ere 
they  came  to  the  ground.  Keep  all  these  things  in  mind,  as  I  shall  no- 
tice them  all  in  their  proper  place. 

We  now  come  to  the  7th  chap.,  in  which  is  the  account  of  Daniel's  first 
vision.  In  this  vision,  he  saw  four  beasts  rise  up  out  of  the  sea,  diverse 
one  from  another.  The  first  was  like  a  lion,  and  had  eagle's  wings.  The 
second  was  like  unto  a  bear,  and  had  three  ribs  in  his  mouth.  A  third 
beast  like  unto  a  leopard,  and  had  four  wings  like  unto  a  fowl,  and  had 
four  heads,  and  dominion  was  given  unto  it.  The  fourth  beast  was  not 
like  any  other  beast,  but  it  had  ten  horns,  and  it  had  great  iron  teeth. 
And  among  the  ten  horns  sprung  up  a  little  horn  which  plucked  up  three 
of  the  other  horns  by  the  roots.  As  I  shall  have  to  refer  to  all  these 
things  again,  I  run  over  them  hastily.  I  shall  pi'ove  to  you  that  these 
four  beasts  were  the  types  of  the  four  kingdoms  which  were  to  repre- 
sent the  image,  and  that  those  four  kingdoms  are  now  in  existence,  in 
Papal  Eome,  Spain,  France  and  England.  England  is  the  beast  with  ten 
horns,  and  the  little  horn,  and  not  Pagan  Konie. 

In  the  7th  chapter,  10th  verse,  thrones  were  cast  down,  and  the 
Ancient  of  days  did  sit.  These  Avere  the  thrones  of  this  Union,  as  I 
shall  prove.  The  llth  contains  the  account  of  the  destruction  of  the 
beast,  and  its  being  given  to  the  burning  fl.ames,  for  the  great  Avords 
which  the  little  horn  spake.  12th.  The  rest  of  the  beasts  had  their 
dominions  taken  away,  and  their  lives  prolonged  for  a  season  and  time, 
loth.  Daniel  saw  in  the  night-vision,  and,  behold,  one  like  the  Son  of 
Man  came  in  the  clouds  of  heaven,  and  came  to  the  Ancient  of  daj's, 
and  they  brought  Him  near  before  him.  And  there  was  given  Him  a 
great  dominion,  that  all  people,  nations,  and  languages,  should  serve  him. 
Here  you  must  keep  in  mind  that  Daniel  saw  this  coming  in  the  cloud, 
in  the  same  night- vision  in  which  he  saw  the  four  beasts,  in  which  he 
also  saw  the  thrones  cast  down. 

17th  and  18th  verses.  These  great  beasts,  which  are  four,  are  four 
kings,  which  shall  arise  out  of  the  earth.  But  the  Saints  of  the  Most 
High  shall  take  the  kingdom,  and  possess  the  kingdom  forever,  even  for 
ever  and  ever.     Here  you  will  see  that  the  four  beasts  were  four  kings. 

Daniel  being  dissatisfied  with  this  short  explanation  of  his  vision,  pro- 
pounded several  queries  in  regard  to  things  that  he  saw,  and  was  very 
desirous  to  know  more  about  the  fourth  beast,  to  which  the  messenger 
replied  thus,  saying :  "  The  fourth  beast  shall  be  the  fourth  kingdom 
upon  earth,  which  shall  be  diverse  from  all  kingdoms,  and  shall  devour 
the  whole  earth,  and  tread  it  down  and  break  it  in  pieces.  And  the  ten 
horns  are  ten  kings  that  shall  arise,  and  another  shall  arise  after  them, 
and  he  shall  be  diverse  from  the  first,  and  he  shall  subdue  three  kings." 


13 

23d  and  24th  verses.  This  mark,  is  the  same  beast  with  ten  horns,  and 
the  little  horn.  It  is  here  called  a  kingdom,  showing  that  beasts  saw  in 
visions,  are  a  type  of  kings  as  well  as  kingdoms.  The  messenger  then 
proceeds  to  the  end  of  the  chapter,  saying,  The  little  horn  shall  s])eak 
great  words  against  the  Most  High,  and  think  to  change  times  and  laws, 
and  thejT-  shall  be  given  into  his  hand,  until  a  time  and  times  and  the 
dividing  of  time.  But  the  judgment  shall  sit  and  take  away  his  domin- 
ion, to  consume  and  destroy  it  unto  the  end.  And  the  kingdom  and 
.dominion,  and  the  greatness  of  the  kingdom  under  the  whole  heaven, 
shall  be  given  unto  the  saints  of  the  Most  High,  whose  kingaom  is  an 
everlasting  kingdom,  and  all  dominions  shall  serve  and  obey  him.  Hith- 
erto is  the  end,  of  the  matter.  All  this  will  bo  fully  explained  before  I 
close. 

In  the  8th  chapter  is  an  account  of  a  second  vision.  This  vision  is 
called  the  vision  of  the  ram  and  goat.  This  vision  was  in  the  third  year 
of  Belshazzar,  whilst  the  first  vision  was  in  the  first  year  of  Belshazzar. 
This  ram  and  goat  had  a  great  struggle,  but  finally  the  goat  proved  too 
powerful  for  the  ram  and  broke  his  two  horns,  completely  conquering 
him.  Then  the  goat  waxed  very  great,  and  became  very  strong,  but  he 
found  his  match  and  his  great  hern  was  broken,  and  for  it  came  up  four 
notable  ones  toward  the  four  winds  of  heaven.  And  out  of  one  of  them 
came  forth  a  little  horn,  which  waxed  exceedingly  great,  toward  the 
south,  and  toward  the  east,  and  toward  the  pleasant  land.  Now  here 
keep  in  mind,  thtit  these  four  horns  came  up  out  of  the  same  goat's  head, 
in  which  the  great  and  notable  horn  had  been  broken  off,  and  that  a 
little  horn  came  out  of  one  of  these  horns.  These  four  horns  I  shall  show 
you  is  a  second  type  of  the  four  kingdoms  which  should  constitute  the 
image,  and  the  little  horn  coming  out  of  one  of  them  the  same  as  the  one 
which  sprung  up  among  the  ten  horns,  and  the  four  beasts  were  a  type 
of  these  four  horns,  as  will  be  shown  presently. 

Daniel  then  goes  on  and  tells  in  short  hand  what  great  work  this  little 
horn  done,  using  almost  the  same  language  used  by  the  messenger  in  the 
first  vision  after  the  queries  of  Daniel  put  to  the  messenger,  and  closes 
with  the  taking  away  of  the  sacrifice,  and  the  transgression  of  desola- 
tion, to  give  both  the  sanctuary  and  the  host  to  be  trodden  under-foot. 
Then  comes  in  the  two  thousand  three  hundred  days,  overheard  by 
Daniel.  Here  keep  in  mind  that  Daniel  saw  all  this  in  the  vision.  The 
angel  or  messenger  spoken  of  in  the  first  vision,  told  him  nothing  of  all 
in  this  chapter  to  the  19th  verse.  Daniel  gives  it  as  what  he  saw  in  the 
vision. 

Commencing  with  the  19th  verse,  the  Angel  Gabriel  spake  unto  Daniel, 
saying,  "And  he  said,  behold,  I  will  make  thee  know  what  shall  be  in 
the  last  end  of  the  indignation,  for  at  the  time  appointed  the  end  shall 
be.  The  ram  which  thou  sawest  having  two  horns  are  the  kings  of 
Media  and  Persia.  And  the  rough  goat  is  the  king  of  Grecia,  and  the 
gi'eat  horn  that  is  between  his  eyes,  is  the  first  king.  Now  that  being 
broken,  whereas  four  stood  up  for  it,  four  kingdoms  shall  stand  up  out  of 
the  nation,  but  not  in  his  power."  19  to  22  inclusive.  Here  you  see  the 
Angel  Gabriel  makes  those  four  horns  four  kingdoms,  but  they  shall  not 
stand  in  their  own  power.  Thus,  you  see,  if  these  are  the  kingdoms 
that  are  to  constitute  the  image,  they  are  to  stand  in  some  other  power, 
and  not  in  their  own. 

Then  the  angel  continues  from  the  23d  to  the  25th  verse,  inclusive,  as 
follows  :  "  And  in  the  latter  time  of  their  kingdom,  when  the  transgres- 
sors are  come  to  the  full,  a  king  of  fierce  countenance  shall  stand   up. 


\ 


14 


This  king  will  understand  dark  sentences.  And  bis  power  shall  be 
mighty,  but  not  by  his  own  power,  and  he  shall  desti'oy  wonderfully,  and 
shall  prosper  and  practice,  and  shall  destroy  the  mighty  and  the  holy 
peojile.  And  through  his  policy,  also,  he  shall  cause  craft  to  prosper  in 
his  hand,  and  he  shall  magnifj'  himself  in  his  heart,  and  by  peace  shall 
destroy  many;  he  shall  also  stand  up  against  the  Prince  of  princes,  but 
he  shall  bo  broken  without  hand."  This  is  the  account  of  a  might}'  king 
that  shall  stand  up  in  the  latter  time  of  these  four  kingdoms.  *'  This 
king,"  the  angel  says,  *'  shall  understand  dark  sentences,  and  do  great 
exploits,  but  not  by  his  own  power."  This  great  king,  I  shall  prove  to 
you,  to  be  Old  Napoleon.  If  I  succeed  in  this,  you  may  rest  assured 
that  the  latter  time  of  those  four  kingdoms  was  at  hand  in  his  day,  and 
that  the  transgressor  is  now  "come  to  the  full,"  and  that  Louis  Napoleon 
must  make  the  letter  to  the  type  set  by  his  uncle,  which  will  cleanse  the 
sanctuary  by  the  close  of  the  year  seventy-one,  which  will  be  time,  times 
and  the  dividing  of  time,  from  the  time  of  the  setting  up  of  the  abomi- 
nation that  maketh  desolate,  as  in  8th  chapter,  25th  verse.  Now  keep 
these  things  in  mind,  whilst  I  proceed  farther. 

We  now  proceed  to  the  10th  chapter.  1st  verse.  In  the  third  year  of 
Cyrus,  king  of  Persia,  a  thing  was  revealed  unto  Daniel,  whose  name 
was  Belteshazzar,  and  the  thing  was  true,  but  the  time  was  long,  and  he 
undei'stood  the  thing,  and  had  understanding  of  the  vision.  5th  and  6th 
verses.  "  Then  I  lifted  up  mine  eyes  and  looked,  and  beheld  a  certain 
man  clothed  in  linen,  whose  loins  were  girded  with  fine  gold  of  Zephyr. 
His  body  was  like  the  beyrl,  and  his  face  the  appearance  of  lightning, 
and  his  eyes  as  lamps  of  fire,  and  his  arms  and  feet  like,  in  color,  to  pol- 
ished brass,  and  the  voice  of  his  words  like  the  voice  ot  a  multitude." 
You  will  see  here  that  Daniel  had  another  and  third  vision,  which  repre- 
sents the  Trinity.  This  was  also  in  the  third  year  of  king  Cyrus'  reign, 
which  also  represents  the  Trinity.  He  describes  the  personage  seen  by 
him,  not  unlike  the  Eevelator  describes  the  personage  seen  by  him  in 
the  midst  of  the  seven  golden  candlesticks,  and  no  doubt,  the  persons  are 
the  same,  spoken  in  the  two  men  by  the  same  spirit,  by  the  spirit  of 
God..  The  personage  seen  coming  in  the  clouds  of  heaven  by  Daniel  in 
his  first  vision,  is  the  same  seen  by  the  Eevelator  in  the  7th  verse  of  the 
same  chapter,  in  which  he  saw  the  personage  in  the  midst  of  the  seven 
golden  candlesticks.  Each  saw  the  cloud  come  before  they  saw^the 
personage.     Daniel  says  it  was  for  a  long  time. 

Then  the  angel  came  to  Daniel  again,  saying,  "  Now  I  am  come  to 
make  thee  understand  what  shall  befall  thy  people  in  the  latter  days,  for 
yet  the  vision  is  for  many  days."  These  days  are  years,  mark,  14th 
verse.  Again,  20th  and  21st  verses.  "  Then  said  he,  knowest  thou 
wherefore  I  am  come  unto  thee?  and  now  I  will  return  to  fight  with  the 
prince  of  Persia,  and  when  I  am  gone  forth,  lo,  the  prince  of  Grrecia 
shall  come.  But  I  will  show  thee  that  which  is  noted  in  the  Scriptures 
of  Truth,  and  there  is  none  that  holdeth  with  me  in  these  things  but 
Michael,  your  prince."  Here  you  will  see  that  the  angel  fights  with  the 
prince  of  Persia,  as  also  in  the  13th  verse,  where  the  kingdom  of  Persia 
had  withstood  him  one  and  twenty  days — one  and  twenty  years.  And 
thus  God  rules  the  armies  of  heaven  as  well  as  the  inhabitants  of  the 
earth."  The  angel  also  tells  Daniel  that  there  was  "  none  held  with  him 
in  the  Scriptures  of  Truth,  but  Michael,"  Daniel's  prince.  This  shows, 
most  coViclusively,  the  reasons  why  Spiritualists  cannot  agree  with  me  in 
this  doctrine.  There  were  but  the  two  angels  who  agreed  about  the 
truth  of  the  ScriptureSj  and  one  of  them  represented  the  Father,  and 


15 

the  other  the  Son,  in  the  spirit- world.  Hence  Michael  comes  in  now  as 
your  humble  servant's  prince,  the  prince  of  second  Daniel ;  and  henco 
his  doeti'ine  is  the  only  true  doctrine  on  earth.  It  throws  Spiritualism 
in  the  shade,  with  all  other  doctrines,  knowing  of  the  truth  of  the  Scrip- 
tures, or  of  coming  events. 

We  now  proceed  to  the  11th  chapter,  in  which  the  angel  gives  a  more 
extended  account  of  all  matters  in  the  visions.  I  will  transcribe  a  few 
verses :  "Also  I  in  the  first  year  of  Darius  the  Mede,  even  I,  stood  to 
confirm  and  to  strengthen  him.  And  now  will  I  show  thee  the  truth. 
Behold,  there  shall  stand  up  three  kings  in  Persia,  and  the  fourth  shall  be 
far  richer  than  they  all,  and  by  his  strength  through  his  riches  he  shall 
stir  up  all  against  the  realm  of  Grecia.  And  a  mighty  king  shall  stand  up 
that  shall  rule  with  great  dominion,  and  do  according  to  his  will.  And 
when  he  shall  stand  up  his  kingdom  shall  be  broken,  and  be  divided  to- 
ward the  four  winds  of  heaven,  and  not  for  his  posterity,  nor  according 
to  his  dominion  which  he  ruled,  for  his  kingdom  shall  be  plucked  up, 
even  for  others  beside  those."     Thus  reads  the  first  four  verses. 

Here  the  reader  must  keep  in  mind  that  the  angel  stood  to  confirm 
and  strengthen  Daniel  in  the  first  year  of  Darius  the  Mede.  This  was 
the  Darius  which  took  the  kingdom  of  Belshazzar,  as  in  Daniel  5,  31, 
when  the  golden  head,  or  in  other  words,  the  beast's  head,  all  the  then 
known  world  had  been  given  to  the  Medes  and  Persians.  When  king 
Cyrus  came  to  the  throne,  he  said  that  God  had  given  him  all  the  king- 
doms of  the  earth,  as  in  the  last  verse  ot  2d  Book  of  Chron.,  and  in  the 
Book  of  Ezra,  1st  chapter,  2d  verse.  This  was  brought  about  by  the 
union  of  the  Mede  and  Persian  kingdom  by  a  marriage,  which 
gave  king  Cyrus  all  the  then  known  world,  all  the  kingdoms  which 
composed  all  the  then  known  world;  and  in  the  third  year  of  his^reign 
Daniel  had  this  vision,  at  the  close  of  which  the  angel  makes  known  to 
him  the  truth  in  regard  to  these  matters. 

He  says  there  shall  yet  stand  up  three  kings  in  Persia — that  is  three 
besides  king  Cyrus.  And  the  fourth  shall  be  far  richer  than  they  all. 
This  fourth  king  was  the  king  of  Grecia.  The  same  the  angel  refers  to 
in  the  2d  verse  of  the  10th  chapter,  as  coming  whilst  he  returned  to  fight 
with  the  prince  of  Persia.  This  king,  with  his  strength  and  riches, 
should  stir  up  all  the  realm  against  him — against  Grecia.  When  a 
mighty  king  should  stand  up  and  rule  with  great  dominion.  This  was 
the  king  of  Eome,  who  conquered  the  Greeks,  And  when  he  should 
stand  up  his  kingdom  should  be  broken,  and  divided  to  the  four  winds  of 
heaven,  and  not  to  his  posterity.  This  was  the  case  with  the  king  that 
conquered  the  Greeks.  He  had  no  heir  to  his  throne,  when  he  divided' 
his  dominions  between  his  four  Generals,  which  passed  it  as  to  the  four 
winds  of  the  heaven,  dividing  it  into  four  parts.  For  his  kingdom  shall 
be  plucked  up  for  others  besides  those.  This  was  represnnted  when 
Pagan  Eome  fell  into  ten  kingdoms,  it  was  plucked  up  for  others  besides 
those — beside  those  four  kings. 

Now,  before  going  any  farther,  I  will  trace  this  matter,  showing  you 
the  four  heads  of  the  dragon.  You  must  keep  in  mind  when  Nebuchad- 
nezzar became  a  beast,  the  spirit  of  the  woman  was  in  the  beast,  the 
woman  was  in  the  devil,  not  as  dead  ghost,  but  as  live  ghost.  The 
meaning  is  that  the  spirit  of  God  is  trampled  under  foot  by  the  devil. 
The  Medo-Persians  conquering  the  Babylonean  monarchy,  represented 
the  trampling  of  God  in  Abraham  under  foot,  this  gave  the  Medes  and 
Persians  Great  Babylon — all  the  then  known  world.  The  Greeks  con- 
quering the  Medes  and  Pei'sians,  trampled  Isaac  and  Eebecca  in  the 


16 

spirit  of  God  under  foot,  which  gave  the  Greeks  Great  Bab3^1on — all  the 
then  known  world.  The  Eomans  conquering  the  Greeks,  trampled  Esau 
in  the  spirit  of  God  ixnder  foot,  which  gave  the  Romans  Great  Babylon — 
all  the  then  known  world.  Now,  mark,  the  spirit  of  Jacob,  live  ghost  for 
God's  kingdom,  stood  in  Pagan  Eome  in  the  devil.  Here  Esau  stands 
third  in  these  conquests,  consequently  he  stands  as  ghost  for  the  devil. 
Had  Esau  not  been  born  as  live  ghost  for  the  devil,  there  could  have 
been  no  Greek  nation  as  ghost  for  Jacob  to  have  conquered  in  the  devil. 

Again :  Pagan  Eome  being  divided  between  four  kings,  represents 
Jacob's  four  sons — Eeuben,  Simeon,  Levi,  and  Judah.  These  kingdoms 
eventually  revert  back  again  into  one,  and  stand  in  the  spirit  of  Judah 
in  the  devil,  until  they  fall  into  ten  kingdoms,  which  represents  Jacob 
and  his  other  nine  children,  the  whole  having  been  represented  in  the 
devil.  Abraham,  Isaac,  Esau,  J  acob  and  his  thirteen  children,  all  in 
kingdoms  in  the  spirit  of  the  devil. 

Again:  I  will  now  show  j^ou  how  the  four  heads  were  made.  iS^ebu- 
chadnezzar  was  the  beast.  The  Medo-Persians  conquered  the  beast  and 
jump  astride  of  him — astride  of  that  power.  Then  the  beast  had  two 
heads.  The  Greeks  conquer  the  Medo-Persians,  when  they  jump  astride 
of  the  beast — then  the  beast  had  three  heads.  The  Eomans  conquer  the 
Greeks,  when  they  jump  astride  of  the  beast — then  the  beast  had  four 
heads.  Now,  we  will  suppose  a  crown  of  four  heads  is  made  for  Pagan 
Eome.  The  spirit  of  this  crown  remains  in  Pagan  Eome,  and  when  she 
falls  into  ten  kingdoms  it  remains  in  Eome  in  the  spirit  of  Jacob  in  the 
devil. 

Again:  The  Greek's  mark  was  the  goat's  head  out  of  which  the  four 
horns  came,  out  of  one  of  which  came  the  little  horn.  Keep  in  mind  now 
that  this  head,  as  well  as  all  the  others,  embraced  all  the  then  known 
world.  Eome  came  in  possession  of  the  goat's  head  by  conquest,  when 
out  of  the  goat's  head  comes  the  four  kingdoms  which  represent  the 
image,  viz :  Papal  Eome,  Spain,  France,  and  England.  The  seat  of 
Pagan  Eome  was  transferred  to  Papal  Eome  in  the  year  six  hundred  and 
six,  when  Papal  Eome  receives  the  crown  of  four  heads.  Keep  these 
things  in  mind. 

These  four  kingdoms  are  the  same  set  in  type  by  the  four  horns  which 
came  up  out  of  the  goat's  head,  which  was  set  in  type  by  the  four  beasts 
seen  in  Daniel's  first  vision.  Papal  Eome  is  the  lion,  Spain  is  the  bear, 
which  had  three  ribs  in  his  mouth,  and  power  to  destroy  much  flesh. 
Keep  in  mind  the  Inquisition  was  established  in  Spain,  where  much  flesh 
was  destroyed.  France  is  the  leopard  which  had  four  wings  as  of  a 
fowl,  and  four  heads.  I  will  show  how  she  gets  these  four  heads  after  a 
while.  England  is  the  beast  with  ten  horns,  and  the  little  horn.  Here 
you  must  keep  in  mind  that  England,  in  six  hundred  and  six  of  the 
Christian  era,  did  not  possess  the  two  islands  she  does  now.  At  that 
time,  what  is  now  England,  possessed  ten  Kingdoms,  or  soon  after  that 
time,  therefore  the  image  was  not  represented  in  the  four  Kingdoms  at 
that  time,  but  is  now,  as  I  shall  soon  show. 

You  will  now  see  that  Jacob's  children  are  again  all  represented  in  the 
imago,  in  Papal  Eome.  The  Spirit  being  transferred  from  Pagan  Eome 
to  Papal  Eome,  transfers  the  Spirit  in  the  Devil,  from  Jacob  to  Eeuben, 
his  first  born  son.  This  places  the  father  in  the  son,  anti-God  or  Devil, 
which  you  please.  Spain  stands  in  the  spirit  of  Simeon,  France  in  the 
spirit  of  Levi,  and  England  in  the  spirit  of  Judah,  and  the  seven  Saxon 
kingdoms  added  to  Eeuben,  Simeon  and  Levi,  makes  ten,  to  which  add 
the  kingdom  of  Scotland,  the  kingdom  of  Ireland,  and  the  kingdom  of 


17 

"Wales,  and  you  have  just  thirteen.  These  are  some  of  the  wonders  of 
God's  -wisdom.  And  wlien  you  add  to  this  the  fact  that  the  xory  soil  of 
England  was  divided  to  represent  Jacob's  two  wives,  and  two  concubines, 
and  also  Jacob  himself,  it  places  the  wisdom  of  God  beyond  the  compre- 
hension of  men.  Britain  represented  Leah,  and  Ireland  her  maid ; 
Scotland  Eachael,  and  Wales  her  maid,  whilst  the  Isle  of  Man  repre- 
sented Jacob  between  his  four  wives.  Now  you  have  got  the  plain  facts 
of  the  case,  as  I  shall  prove  most  conclusively  from  this  out. 

l^ow,  having  found  Daniel's  beast  with  ten  horns,  we  will  see  if  wo 
can  find  the  little  horn.  In  this  connection  you  must  keep  in  mind  that 
kings  represent  those  horns.  In  the  tenth  or  eleventh  century  William  the 
couquerer  spread  his  pavilion  over  the  seven  Saxon  kingdoms  of  England, 
in  the  spirit  of  Jacob's  daughter,  who  was  born  eleven  in  turn  of  birth 
with  the  other  children.  The  ten  sons  born  previous  to  her  are  repre- 
sented in  the  ten  Kings,  and  she,  being  eleventh,  comes  in  in  William 
the  Conqueror;  hence  the  spirit  of  the  woman  is  the  conqueror.  The 
throne  of  England  from  that  time  up,  stands  in  the  spirit  of  the  woman. 
This  throne  then  proceeds  to  conquer  the  kings  of  Scotland,  Ireland  and 
Wales,  and  uniting  them  to  England,  thus  plucking  up  three  of  the  ten 
horns,  by  the  roots,  completely  fulfilling  the  prophecy  of  Daniel.  I 
sujjpose  you  will  still  say  in  the  face  of  all  this  that  men  are  free  agents. 
Well,  have  it  so  then. 

As  stated  in  the  Bridegroom,  England  received  God's  kingdom  in  the 
union  of  Scotland  with  England,  by  a  marriage,  notwithstanding  its 
having  been  conquered.  This  originates  from  the  fact  that  Scotland 
stood  in  the  spirit  of  Eachael,  who  was  the  type  of  the  spiritual  King- 
dom of  God,  and  as  Jacob  received  Eachael  last,  so  she  in  spirit  must 
come  into  England  by  marriage.  Wales,  which  stood  in  the  spirit  of 
her  maid,  partook  of  the  spirit  of  Eachael,  and  therefore  had  to  be  united 
to  England  by  an  additional  tenure  to  conquest,  by  which  the  heirs  to 
the  throne  receives  the  name  of  Prince  of  Wales.  This  is  at  least  the 
case  with  the  kings  of  the  throne  of  England.  Ireland,  being  Leah's 
hand-maid,  and  she  being  the  type  of  the  natural  kingdom  of  God,  had 
to  be  held  by  conquest  alone,  thus,  first  natural,  and  afterward  spiritual, 
as  Paul  says. 

England,  receiving  God's  Kingdom  in  King  James  the  Eirst,  represents 
the  clay  in  the  feet  of  the  image.  The  Jewish  kingdom  having  started 
from  Abraham,  who  was  called  to  replace  the  first  Adam  who  was  made 
of  clay,  constitutes  the  clay  in  the  feet  of  the  image.  This  was  again 
represented  in  Scotland  by  a  difl:erent  worship,  a  worshij)  called  Protest- 
antism. The  different  kinds  of  metal  in  the  image  were  only  to  designate 
for  different  kingdoms,  the  whole  designed  as  a  type  of  image  worship, 
whilst  the  clay  in  them  was  a  type  of  a  different. 

Almost  the  first  thing  done  by  King  James  was  to  lay  off  the  east 
coast  of  the  new  world  into  two  districts,  upon  which  settled  twelve 
Colonies  in  the  spiint  of  twelve  of  Jacob's  children.  The  thirteenth 
Colony  was  settled  to  represent  the  birth  of  Benjamin,  who  was  the  last 
child  born,  as  will  be  shown  in  the  chapter  on  the  Jewish  kingdom. 
These  Colonies  constituted  the  toes  of  the  image.  They  were  born  into 
a  kingdom  of  twelve  thrones,  but  only  a  ghost  kingdom,  a  President 
without  a  crown.  It  is  not  termed  a  kingdom  by  Daniel;  only  tho 
dividing  of  the  fourth  kingdom,  as  in  Daniel  2  :  41,  as  follows:  "  And 
whereas  thou  sawest  the  feet  and  toes,  part  of  potter's  clay  and  part  of 
iron,  the  kingdom  shall  be  divided,  but  there  shall  be  in  it  the  strength 
of  the  iron,  forasmuch  as  thou  sawest  the  iron  mixed  with  miry  clay." 


18 

Thus  you  will  see  that  Daniel  don't  consider  this  a  kingdom  as  yet,  only 
the  dividing  of  the  kingdom  with  ten  horns,  and  the  little  horn.  Tho 
Union  must  now  go  on  until  the  thirteen  Apostles  who  represent  the 
thirteen  children  of  Jacob  have  been  represented  in  the  Presidency,  this 
closed  with  Buchanan's  reign,  which  brings  us  in  the  very  days  of  the 
kings  who  rule  in  the  four  kingdoms  that  represent  the  image,  and  before 
Abraham  leaves  the  throne  of  the  twelve-throne  kingdom,  the  God  of 
Heaven  will  be  here  and  set  up  the  kingdom  in  the  days  of  these  kings, 
precisely  as  Daniel  stated.  I  shall  now  halt  with  Buchanan  until  I 
bring  up  many  other  things. 

I  will  first  direct  the  attention  of  Dr.  Pitts,  and  all  other  wise  men,  to 
the  feet  and  toes  of  the  image,  by  asking  them  if  the  two  Islands  of 
England  do  not  look  more  like  the  two  feet  of  such  an  image  than  Pagan 
Home  ?  It  seems  to  me  that  no  man  can  be  so  blind  but  that  he  can  see 
this,  more  especially  after  it  is  pointed  out  to  him.  Again,  does  not  the 
colonies  look  more  like  the  toes  of  such  an  image,  than  the  ten  kingdoms 
into  which  Pagan  Eome  fell.  This,  I  think,  everybody  must  admit.  The 
reader  might  here  say  that  the  thirteen  do  not  represent  ten.  True,  but 
mark,  one  of  the  thirteen  belongs  in  the  midst  of  the  twelve,  and  this 
was  settled  entirely  outside  of  the  two  districts.  Again,  you  will  find 
by  consulting  history,  that  the  two  districts  over-lap  each  other  in  the 
middle,  which  God  had  done  on  purpose  to  represent  the  toes.  Now  I 
hope  these  things  are  plain. 

I  will  now  prepare  your  mind  for  the  reception  of  the  other  three 
heads  of  the  dragon.  You  must  here  keep  in  mind,  as  shown  above, 
that  God,  in  spirit,  brought  Adam  and  Eve  on  this  side  of  Cain  and  the 
dead  ghost.  These  are  now  represented  in  the  four  kingdoms  that  rep- 
resent the  Image;  Eome  stands  in  the  spirit  of  Cain  ;  Spain  in  the  spirit 
of  the  Dead  Ghost;  France  in  the  spirit  of  Adam;  and  England  in  the 
spirit  of  Eve  ;  thus  doubly  representing  the  four  kingdoms.  The  Pope 
standing  in  the  sisirit  of  Cain,  who  had  the  spirit  of  the  woman  repre- 
sented in  Abel  dead  in  him.  The  Pope  and  Priests  could  have  no 
wives,  at  least  laAvful  ones ;  hence  the  Pope  must  have  a  spiritual  wife, 
which  was  represented  in  England  as  Eve ;  Eome,  Spain  and  France, 
representing  the  Pope  in  the  Trinity  as  anti-god.  Henry  the  Eighth  of 
England  has  England  divorced  from  Rome,  from  the  Pope.  The  people 
of  England  make  him  Pope  of  the  Church  of  England;  thus  England, 
the  wife  of  the  dragon,  gives  birth  to  a  son  for  the  old  fellow.  This 
Henry  is  the  beast  with  seven  heads,  ten  horns,  and  ten  crowns  upon 
the  horns.  Eev.  13  :  1.  The  spirit  of  the  seven  Saxon  princes  in  tho 
throne  constitute  the  type  of  the  seven  heads  of  the  beast.  These  heads 
were  represented  by  the  seven  Henrys  that  preceded  Henry  the  Eighth, 
the  fii'st  one  having  been  an  usurper  of  the  throne.  This,  you  see,  places 
Eome,  Spain  and  France,  as  the  Father,  and  England  the  Son,  and  this 
Union,  born  from  England,  as  the  Ghost,  all  in  anti-god,  all  in  the  devil. 
"We  will  now  go  back  to  ISTebuchadnezzar,  the  beast,  and  trace  down 
the  seven  heads  of  the  beast.  The  Medo-Persians  conquer,  and 
jump  astride  of  the  beast,  when  it  has  two  heads.  The  Greeks  conquer 
it,  and  jump  astride,  when  it  has  three  heads.  The  Eomans  conquer  the 
Greeks,  and  jump  astride,  when  the  beast  has  four  heads.  This  closes 
the  great  conquests.  jSTow,  a  crown  is  made  for  the  beast  oi  four  heads. 
This  crown  is  transferred  from  Pagan  Eome  to  Papal  Eome,  in  the  year 
six  hundred  and  six.  This  locks  the  dragon  in  the  bottomless  pit  as  in 
Eev.  21 :  1,  2,  3.  The  old  world  is  the  bottomless  pit;  everything  estab- 
lished on  it  must  disappear  £^s  would  anything  cast  into  a  pit  without  a 


19 

bottom.  He  being  chained  in  the  pit,  cannot  make  any  heads  for  him- 
self. Spain  being  the  ghost,  dead  in  the  Pope,  she  cannot  make  any 
heads.  France,  standing  in  the  spirit  of  Adam,  she  must  make  a  head 
to  represent  Adam.  Thus  old  IS'apoleon  springs  up  after  the  thousand 
years  expire,  when  ho  calls  upon  the  Pope  to  come  and  crown  him  Em- 
peror of  France;  he  refuses  to  do  it.  Old  Napoleon  proceeds  to  Eomo 
with  his  army  and  encamps  outside  the  city,  and  with  a  few  of  his  aids, 
proceeded  to  the  palace  of  the  Pope,  where  he  finds  him  sitting  on  his 
Chair  of  State.  Ho  walks  up  against  the  chaii",  throwing  it  over  and 
spilling  the  Pope  out  on  the  floor,  then  steps  over  him,  and  turns 
around,  takes  the  crown  off  the  Pope's  head,  puts  it  upon  his  own  and 
marches  off  with  it.  This  unlocks  the  bottomless  pit  and  lets  the  spirit 
of  the  beast,  the  spirit  of  the  devil,  out.  Napoleon  jumps  astride  of  the 
beast  and  runs  his  career,  when  the  beast  has  five  heads.  He  stumbles 
against  England,"  when  he  is  conquered,  and  England  jumps  astride  of 
the  beast,  and  is  making  the  sixth  head  for  the  dragon,  which  is  the 
head  of  Eve.  Louis  Napoleon  must  now  conquer  England  in  order  to 
jump  astride  of  the  beast  and  make  the  seventh  and  last  head.  Keep 
these  things  in  mind. 

We  will  now  see  how  this  agrees  with  the  Eevelator.  In  the  17th 
chapter,  is  the  account  of  the  scarlet-colored  beast  with  seven,  heads  and 
ten  horns.  The  angel,  explaining  this  beast  with  seven  heads  and  ten 
horns,  says,  "  The  seven  heads  are  seven  mountains  on  which  the  woman 
sitteth."  These  seven  mountains  are  the  seven  hills  on  which  the  city 
of  Pome  sits.  (I  will  explain  fully  about  this  woman  in  the  chapter  on 
the  Eevelation,  which  is  the  next  chapter  in  the  work.  My  object  here 
is  to  point  out  the  heads  of  the  dragon.)  "And  there  are  seven  kings, 
one  for-each  mountain.  Five  are  fallen;  one  is,  the  other  is  not  yet 
come,  and  when  he  cometh  he  must  abide  a  short  space.  And  the  beast 
tbat  was,  and  is  not,  even  he  is  the  eighth,  but  of  the  seven,  of  the  spirit 
of  Nebuchadnezzar,  the  beast,  and  he  goeth  into  perdition.  9th,  10th, 
and  11th  verses.  Now  we  will  see  how  this  agrees  with  the  above. 
Five  are  fallen.  Keep  in  mind  that  old  Napoleon  made  the  fifth  head, 
hence  he  was  the  fifth  king.  The  kings,  of  Babylon,  Medo-Persian,  Gre- 
cian, and  Eoman,  being  the  other  four,  the  five  now  being  dead,  fallen. 
Her  Majesty,  Queen  Victoria,  is  now  riding  the  beast  that  is  making  the 
sixth  head.  England  is  making  the  sixth  head  for  the  di*agon,  and  the 
Queen  represents  the  woman  here  riding  the  beast,  as  the  one  that  is,  as 
in  the  10th  verse,  five  fallen  and  one  is.  And  Louis  Napoleon  is  the  one 
not  yet  come,  and  when  he  cometh,  he  must  abide  a  short  space,  and  the 
beast  is  the  eighth,  but  of  the  seven,  of  the  same  ^irit.  Thus  you  will 
see  perfect  harmony  throughout. 

The  reader  will,  no  doubt,  say  why  can't  some  other  king  make  this 
last  head  as  well  as  Louis  Napoleon  ?  Answer — Because  the  last  head  is 
the  OM  Serpent's  Head,  the  same  which  beguiled  Mother  Eve,  or  rather 
that  made  her  a  mother.  This  was  the  lower  head  in  Adam;  and  as 
France  stands  in  the  spirit  of  Adam,  she  must  make  two  heads.  Old 
Napoleon  made  a  head  for  the  upper  one,  and  Louis  Napoleon  must  make 
a  head  for  the  lower  one.  France  also  ^is  the  third  kingdom  in  the 
image,  and  the  image  being  that  of  a  man,  the  head  is  in  that  part  of 
the  image  which  France  represents.  You  will  therefore  see  that  it  is 
not  possible  for  any  other  man  on  earth  to  make  that  head  but  Louis 
Napoleon. 

Again  :  You  will  see  that  these  heads  are  represented  first  last.  Adam 
and  Eve  were  first ;  Abraham,  Isaac,  Esau,  and  Jacob,  last.    Now,  mark, 


20 

Abraham,  Isaac,  Esau,  and  Jacob,  w^ere  represented  in  Babylon;  Medo- 
Persiau,  Greeks  and  Eoman,  in  the  devil.  And  now  comes  Adam,  Eve, 
and  the  Serpents,  last.  This  last  head  being  the  serpent's  head,  the  rep- 
resentation will  be  the  most  awful  ever  taken  place  on  earth.  Slaughter, 
rapine,  murder,  massacre,  and  everything  else,  will  accompany  it.  This 
calamit}'-  has  now  commenced  in  this  Union  (Mark  13,  14,),  which  will 
be  fully  proven  before  I  get  through. 

We  will  now  go  back  and  see  how  the  prophecy. of  Daniel  agrees  with 
this.  We  left  off  at  the  close  of  the  4th  verse  of  the  11th  chapter,  which, 
as  stated  above,  gave  us  the  close  of  Pagan  Eome  by  falling  into  ten 
kingdoms.  By  reading  a  portion  of  that  chapter,  as  far  as  the  thirteenth 
verse,  you  will  see  the  meanderings  of  different  kings  with  their  armies, 
in  very  short  hand.  The  13th  verse  reads  thus :  "  For  the  King  of  the 
North  shall  return,  and  shall  set  forth  a  multitude  greater  than  the  for- 
mer, and  shall  certainly  come  after  certain  years  with  a  great  army  and 
much  riches."  This  Kingdom  of  the  North  is  England,  in  the  spirit  of 
the  little  horn.  And  in  those  times  there  shall  many  stand  up  against 
the  King  of  the  South,  also  the  rulers  of  thy  people  shall  exalt  them- 
selves to  establish  the  vision,  but  they  shall  fail.  14th  verse. — This  verse 
shows  a  great  struggle  between  the  king  of  the  North  and  the  king  of 
the  South.  France  is  this  king  of  the  South.  The  rulers  of  Daniel's 
people  were  trying  to  bring  the  vision  about.  Eome  stood  in  the  spirit 
of  the  robbers  of  Daniel's  people ;  Papal  Rome  received  the  spirit  of  Pagan 
Rome,  who  robbed  and  destroyed  the  Jewish  people,  who  were  Daniel's 
people.  But  as  France  was  the  acting  power  for  Eome  it  was  France 
against  England  trying  to  bring  about  the  vision.  15th  verse — So  the 
king  of  the  North  shall  come  and  cast  up  a  mount,  and  take  the  most 
fenced  cities,  and  the  arms  of  the  South  shall  not  withstand,  neither  shall 
his  chosen  people,  neither  shall  their  be  any  strength  to  withstand.  This 
shows  that  neither  of  those  parties  should  accomplish  anything  at  that 
time.  16th  verse — But  him  that  cometh  against  him  shall  do  according 
to  his  own  will,  and  none  shall  stand  before  him,  and  he  shall  stand  in 
the  glorious  land  which  by  his  hand  shall  be  consumed.  This  personage 
was  old  Bonaparte.  The  glorious  land  means  the  Land  of  Canaan,  the 
Holy  Land,  in  which  old  Bonaparte  camped  his  arm}^.  17th  verse — He 
shall  also  set  his  face  to  enter  with  his  whole  kingdom,  and  upright  ones 
with  him;  thus  shall  he  do,  and  he  shall  give  him  the  daughter  of 
■woman,  corrupting  her;  but  she  shall  not  stand  on  his  side,  neither  be 
for  him.  This  verse  has  the  spirit  of  Bonaparte's  divorce  from  Jose- 
phine. A  daughter  of  another  woman  was  given  him  for  a  wife,  she  was 
not  for  him.  Josephine  was  his  star,  and  when  he  lost  her  he  lost  the 
spirit.  I  will  show  you  in  the  next  chapter  why  this  had  to  be  done. 
His  second  wife  did  not  give  him  the  spirit,  hence  Daniel  says  she  was 
not  for  him.  I  said  Daniel,  but  I  should  have  said  the  angel,  as  the 
angel  is  telling  Daniel  all  this.  This  verse  also  contains  the  tj'pe  of  his 
failure  at  Moscow.  18th  and  19th  verses — After  this  shall  he  turn  his 
face  unto  the  isles,  and  shall  take  many,  and  a  prince  for  his  own  behalf 
shall  cause  the  reproach  offered  by  him  to  cease,  without  his  own  re- 
proach he  shall  cause  it  to  turn  upon  him.  Then  he  shall  turn  his  face 
toward  the  fort  of  his  own  land,  but  he  shall  stumble  and  fall,  and  not  be 
found.  This  was  his  return  from  Mocsow,  and  his  last  battle  with  En- 
gland, when  the  beast  stumbled  and  fell,  throwing  him  off,  when  England 
jumped  astride  of  the  beast,  and  old  Bonapai'te  was  not  found  on  the 
throne  of  France — thus  completely  fulfilling  the  above,  which  will  be 
made  still  plainer. 


21 

Thia  also  fulfills  what  I  stated  above  about  old  Bonaparte  being  the 
great  king  mentioned  at  the  close  of  the  8th  chapter,  the  vision  of  the 
ram  and  goat  as  the  man  which  should  arise  up  in  the  latter  time  of  the 
four  kingdoms,  set  in  tj^pe  by  the  four  horns  which  came  up  out  of  the 
goat's  head.  Old  Napoleon  was  of  fierce  countenance,  and  understood 
dark  sentences,  and  ruled  with  a  power  not  his  own.  No,  his  power  was 
in  Josephine,  and  when  he  put  her  away  his  power  was  gone.  Truly 
mankind  are  but  machines  in  God's  hand.  Now,  keep  in  mind  that 
France  was  tiie  third  kingdom  in  the  image,  and  that  old  Napoleon  took 
the  crown  of  four  heads  off  the  Pope's  head  and  put  it  on  his  own — 
when  you  have  Daniel's  third  beast  with  four  heads,  and  four  wings  as 
of  a  fowl.  Wings  implies  speed,  that  was  represented  by  Napoleon  in 
the  marching  of  his  army.  He  was  always  upon  his  enemy  throe  or 
four  days  before  he  looked  for  him.  Again  :  The  four  kingdoms  was  in 
their  latter  days  in  his  lifetime,  as  the  angel  sa3-s  in  8th  chapter,  23d 
verse,  that  this  king  should  rise  up  in  the  latter  time  of  their  kingdom, 
when  the  transgressors  had  came  to  the  full.  Fifty  years  have  passed 
since  his  days,  hence  the  end  of  those  kingdoms  must  now  be  very  close 
at  hand,  which  will  now  be  further  shown. 

We  will  now  continue  on  the  20th  verse — Then  shall  stand  up  in  his 
estate  a  raiser  of  taxes  in  the  glory  of  the  kingdom,  but  within  few  days 
he  shall  be  destroyed,  neither  in  anger  nor  in  battle.  This  personage 
was  Louis  Phillippe  He  took  the  throne  of  France  a  poor  man,  and 
left  it  one  of  the  richest  men  in  the  world,  showing  himself  to  be  the 
man  the  angel  sent  then  to  make  the  letter  to  the  type.  These  days 
means  years.     He  was  destroyed,  but  neither  in  battle  nor  anger. 

21st  verse— And  in  his  estate  shall  stand  up  a  vile  pei'son,  to  whom 
they  shall  not  give  the  honor  of  the  kingdom,  but  he  shall  come  in 
peaceably,\and  obtain  the  kingdom  by  flatteries.  This  personage  ia 
the  present  Louis  Napoleon,  The  angel  calls  him  a  vile  person.  He 
obtained  the  kingdom  by  flatteries,  just  as  stated;  everything  corrobo- 
rating every  woi'd  of  the  angel. 

22d  and  23d  verses — And  with  the  arms  of  a  flood  shall  they  be  over- 
flown from  before  him,  and  shall  be  bi-oken,  yea,  also  the  prince  of  the 
Covenant.  And  after  the  league  made  with  him,  he  shall  work  deceit- 
fully, for  he  shall  come  up  and  become  strong  with  a  small  people.  This 
league  set  in  type  in  Daniel's  first  vision.  He  says  the  fourth  beast  has 
iron  teeth  (7th  chapter,  7th  verse) ;  and  in  the  7th  chapter  and  19th 
verse,  it  has  iron  teeth  and  brass  nails — a  league  between  the  iron  and 
brass  kingdoms.  This  is  the  alliance  now  existing  between  England 
and  France — the  iron  and  brass  kingdoms  in  the  image.  The  angel  says 
he  shall  work  deceitfully.  This  he  will  do  just  so  sure  as  the  angel  said 
so.  They  have  been  overflown  from  before  him  at  both  Eussia  and 
Austria.  Most  certainly  no  one  can  be  so  blind  as  to  read  this  and  not 
see  the  fulfillment  of  these  things  taking  place  yearly.  Furthermore, 
he  shall  grow  up  and  become  strong  with  a  small  people.  This  I  will 
show  before  I  close. 

24th  verse.  He  shall  enter  peaceably  upon  the  fattest  places  of  the 
province,  and  he  shall  do  that  which  his  fathers  have  not  done,  nor  his 
father's  fathers.  He  shall  scatter  among  them  the  prey,  and  spoils,  and 
riches,  yea,  he  shall  cast  his  devices  against  the  strongholds,  even  for  a 
time.  This  you  will  see  he  has  in  part  already  done.  He  has  entered 
peaceably,  as  it  were,  the  fattest  places  of  the  provinces,  in  his  taking  of 
Mexico.  I  will  point  out  the  spoils  before  I  close.  He  shall  cast  his 
devices  against  the  strongholds.     This,  I  will  show,  will  be  his  conquer- 


22  . 

ing  of  England,  which  will  be  fully  accomplished  by  the  time  he  arrives 
at  the  announcementof  the Slst  verse.  And  arms  shall  stand  on  his  part 
and  they  shall  pollute  the  sanctuary  of  strength,  and  shall  take  away  the 
daily  sacrifice,  and  they  shall  place  the  abomination  that  maketh  deso- 
late. This  will  be  the  conquering  of  England,  and  the  same  referred  to 
by  what  Daniel  overheard  the  Saints  talking  about,  in  8th  ch.,  13th  va-, 
the  verse  pi-oceding  the  twenty-three  hundred  days.  Eead  this  chapter 
out  and  you  will  find  this  vile  person  is  the  combattant,  and  the  one 
side  to  the  end  of  the  chapter,  of  which  many  points  will  be  noticed 
before  I  close. 

The  time  of  setting  up  this  abomination  is  set  by  the  Eevelator,  in  11th 
chap.  1st,  2nd  verse  :  "  And  there  Avas  given  me  a  reed  like  unto  a  rod, 
and  the  Angel  stood,  saying :  rise  and  measure  the  temple  of  God,  and 
the  altar,  and  them  that  worship  therein.  But  the  court  which  is  with- 
out the  temple  leave  out,  and  measure  it  not,  for  it  is  given  unto  the 
Gentiles,  and  the  holy  city  shall  they  tread  under  foot  forty  and  twe 
months."  This  measurement  commenced  with  the  crowning  of  the  first 
Pope,  in  the  year  606.  Mark,  as  stated  above,  the  court  connected  with 
the  tabernacle  was  a  type  of  the  dragon's  kingdom,  which  was  given  to 
the  Gentiles,  in  the  Pope,  transferred  from  Pagan  Pome.  It  was  not 
measured.  The  tabernacle  became  the  temple  built  by  Solomon,  and  is 
represented  in  England,  hence  England  was  the  temple  measured  for 
forty  and  two  months.  Forty  and  two  prophetic  months  would  make 
twelve  hundred  and  three  score  prophetic  days,  and  a  prophetic  day 
being  a  year  with  us,  would  make  twelve  hundred  and  three  score  years 
from  the  time  the  measurement  took  place.  'Now  commence  witli  the 
year  606  and  add  to  them  1860  years,  and  you  will  close  with  the  year 
1866.  The  measuring  of  England  was  only  to  keep  her  from  being  con- 
quered until  that  time.  You  will  see  that  during  this  forty  and  two 
months  the  holy  city  is  to  be  trodden  under  foot.  It  was  called  the  holy 
city  from  the  fact  that  it  was  to  receive  God's  kingdom,  of  which  the 
holy  place  in  the  Tabernacle  was  a  type,  and  now  stands  as  the  holy  place 
in  the  Tabernacle.  Hence  the  abomination  of  desolation  is  to  be  set  up 
by  Louis  Napoleon,  when  Jesus  will  redeem  it  and  cleanse  the  Sanctuary, 
as  in  Daniel  8 :  14.  Hence  this  conquest  of  England  must  take  place 
before  the  close  of  the  year  1866. 

I  will  now  notice  one  item  more  in  connection  with  Daniel's  four 
beasts,  and  then  pass  on  to  notice  Nebuchadnezzar,  the  tree.  Daniel 
saw  in  his  night  vision,  those  four  beasts  rise  up  out  of  the  sea,  one 
diverse  from  another.  You  must  keep  in  mind  that  the  sea  mentioned 
here  is  not  the  Ocean,  but  the  Catholic  See.  The  type  of  this  Catholic 
See  was  set  in  the  sea  Solomon  had  made  for  the  temple,  as  in  1st  Kings, 
8th  ch.  23d  to  25th  verse.  This  See  was  placed  in  the  temple,  or  porch, 
as  the  emblem  of  the  flood  that  drowned  the  antedoluvian  world.  This 
See  Pagan  Pome  stole  from  God's  house,  when  they  destroyed  the  tem- 
l^le  at  old  Jerusalem,  as  well  as  the  candlestick  with  six  branches, 
together  with  all  the  manuscripts  of  the  Bible,  and  furniture  of  the 
House,  including  the  mercy  seat.  This  was  all  transfered  to  Papal  Pome 
when  it  became  the  furniture  of  the  devil's  house.  This  sea  then  became 
the  Papal  See,  out  of  which  Daniel  saw  these  four  beasts  rise  :  Pome, 
Spain,  France  and  England,  and  are  the  very  Kingdoms  that  represent 
the  image.  These  are  the  only  four  kingdoms  ever  having  existed  on 
earth  to  which  one  man  gave  law  and  gospel ;  the  only  four  kingdoms  ever 
having  been  ruled  by  one  man.  For  a  term  of  more  than  three  hundred 
years  did  the  Pope  put  up  Kings,  and  set  the  basest  of  men  upon  thrones 


23 

in  these  four  kingdoms,  as  anti-God,  shadowed  forth  in  Daniel  4 :  17. 
This  shows  most  conclusively,  that  these  kingdoms  were  connected 
together  to  represent  the  image  in  its  four  parts,  as  are  those  four  parts 
of  a  man  connected.  As  the  head  of  a  man  rules  those  four  parts,  so 
have  those  four  kingdoms  been  ruled  by  one  man. 

I  will  now  notice  an  item  just  received  which  stands  in  connection 
with  a  passage  noted  above,  11th  chaptei-,  14th  verse,  where  the  robbers 
of  Daniel's  people  should  try  to  establish  tbe  vision.  Jesus  tells  us  in 
John  10:  1,  "  Verily,  verily,  I  say  unto  you,  he  that  entereth  not  by  ihp 
door  of  the  sheepfold,  but  climbeth  up  some  other  way,  the  same  is  a 
thief  and  robber."  The  Jewish  kingdom  is  the  sheepfold  here  referred 
to.  When  Pagan  Eome  entered  the  sheepfold,  she  did  not  enter  the 
door,  or  gate  of  the  city.  No,  she  battered  the  wall  doAvn  and  climbed 
up  outside,  and  therefore  stands  as  the  thief  and  robber,  as  stated  above. 
Hence,  when  this  spirit  was  transferred  to  Papal  Eome,  father  in  the 
son,  she  stands  as  the  thief  and  robber,  represented  in  the  Trinity,  in 
Eome,  Spain  and  France. 

Now,  the  question  is,  how  did  the  robbers  of  Daniel's  people  try  to 
bring  the  vision  about?  I  will  tell  j'ou.  You  will  recollect  that  histoiy 
tells  us  that  Spain  attempted  to  conquer  England  in  the  latter  part  of 
the  fifteenth  century,  I  think.  This  attempt  was  called  the  Spanish  Ar- 
mada. God  sent  a  storm  that  destroyed  the  fleet,  and  the  project  failed, 
just  as  the  angel  said  it  should.  You  will  see  by  this  that  the  establish- 
ing of  the  vision,  must  bo  the  conquering  of  England.  This,  you  see, 
took  place  before  old  Napoleon's  day,  more  than  a  hundred  years  before, 
hence  stands  in  this  chapter  before  the  coming  in  of  Napoleon,  as  above. 
This  is  in  the  14th  verse,  and  old  Napoleon  comes  in  in  the  16th,  and 
stumbles  and  falls,  and  is  not  found  in  the  19th  verse — not  found  upon 
the  throne  of  France.  Again,  not  far  from  this  time,  the  Saint  Barthol- 
omew massacre  took  place  in  France,  when  seventy  thousand  Protestants 
were  massacred.  This  was  also  an  attempt  to  bring  about  the  vision, 
but  it  failed  also.  This  implies  a  great  massacre  through  the  world, 
about  the  time  this  abomination  of  desolation  is  set  up  by  Louis  Napo- 
leon, which  will  be  pi'oven  more  abundantly  in  the  further  progress  of 
this  work. 

We  will  now  proceed  to  notice  Nebuchadnezzar  as  the  Tree.  I  must 
here  again  go  back  to  the  first  Adam.  In  the  Bridegroom  I  proved  to 
you  that  Adam  was  in  the  figure  of  an  oak  tree,  and  Eve  in  him.  He 
was  placed  in  the  garden  of  the  Lord,  when  Eve  was  taken  out  of  him. 
When  God  met  Abram  in  the  plains  of  Mamre,  he  met  him  in  the  Trinity 
in  three  men,  or  angels,  Gen.  18  :  1,  5.  This  meeting  took  place  under 
a  tree.  The  account  does  not  say  under  an  oak  tree,  but  a  tree.  "Under 
this  tree  Isaac  was  promised,  as  in  10th  verse.  Now  mark,  Abram  was 
called  to  replace  the  first  Adam  at  the  head  of  God's  kingdom  ;  his  name 
was  changed  as  well  as  that  of  his  wife,  which  raises  them  a  degree 
higher  in  the  scale  of  civilization.  This  places  God's  natural  kingdom, 
which  was  in  the  figure  of  an  oak  tree,  under  .a  tree.  The  spirit  of  all 
this  was  in  the  kingdom  when  given  to  Nebuchadnezzar  in  the  golden 
head  of  the  image,  after  which  he  became  a  Great  Tree  that  reached  up 
to  heaven,  and  the  sight  thereof  unto  the  ends  of  the  earth. 

Now  hero  keep  in  mind  that  this  tree  is  connected  with  the  image, 
and  that  the  tree  is  a  spiritual  one,  as  was  the  image  a  spiritual  one,  rep- 
resented in  four  kingdoms,  and  that  this  tree  does  not  commence  its 
spiritual  growth  until  the  image  commences  its  growth.  This  was  in 
the  year  606,  which  places  the  tree  beside  the  image ;  and  as  England  is 


24 

the  feet  of  the  image,  the  tree  stands  beside  the  feet,  hence  on  the  oppo- 
site side  of  the  channel  from  Eugh\nd.  This  tree  was  the  type  of  image 
worship  outside  of  the  image,  extending  to  the  ends  of  the  earth,  but 
not  in  the  same  form  as  in  the  four  kingdoms.  In  the  four  kingdoms, 
the  worship  was  ruled  b}"  one  man  in  Church  and  State  ;  but  in  the  tree 
this  man  did  not  rule  in  State,  only  in  Church.  Hence  the  eh\jirches  out- 
side of  the  image  are  connected  with  the  Pope,  similar  to  the  branches 
being  connected  wfth  a  tree.  This  is  the  reason  why  the  dream  of  the 
tree  followed  the  dream  of  the  image  with  Nebuchadnezzai-,  so  the  wor- 
ship of  images  had  to  spread  outside  the  image  to  the  ends  of  the  earth. 
Had  it  not  been  for  this,  image-worship  could  not  have  extended  beyond 
the  four  kingdoms.  The  four  kinds  of  metal  in  the  image  was  only  to 
designate  four  kingdoms,  and  to  show  the  time  when  the  feet  and  toes 
was  fullj^  represented. 

Again.  From  the  time  the  spirit  was  transferred  from  Pagan  Rome 
to  Papal  Rome,  this  tree  has  been  growing,  and  was  the  spiritual  repre- 
sentative of  the  tree  under  which  God  met  Abram,  and  under  which 
Isaac  was  promised,  who  was  born  according  to  the  spirit  of  promise, 
and  was  the  first  white  child  ever  born,  who  was  a  type  of  Jesus.  Hence 
God's  kingdom,  or  the  spirit  of  it,  was  trampled  under  foot  under  this 
spiritual  tree,  until  the  last  battle  fought  between  England  and  France. 
England  and  France  being  the  iron  and  brass  kingdoms  in  the  image, 
cut  down  that  tree  in  the  battle  of  Waterloo,  and  left  an  iron  and  brass 
band  on  the  stump  of  the  tree  in  the  tender  grass  of  the  field.  This 
battle  took  place  on  the  opposite  side  of  the  channel,  on  German  soil,  I 
believe.  The  iron  is  first  mentioned  in  the  band,  a  tj^pe  that  the  iron 
kingdom  Avould  gain  the  victory.  Now  you  all  know  that  England,  the 
iron  kingdom  in  the  image,  did  gain  that  victory,  proving  positively  that 
God  over-ruled  the  armies. 

Again.  The  very  moment  that  the  spiritual  tree  was  cut  down  with 
God's  spii'itual  war-ax,  old  Napoleon's  army  ran,  proving  most  conclu- 
sively that  Popery  stands  in  the  spirit  of  the  beast,  Nebuchadnezzar. 
Beasts  run,  but  trees  cannot.  This  left  the  dragon  as  the  beast,  and 
England  as  the  Oak  Tree.  From  the  time  the  tree  was  cut  down.  Popery 
has  been  on  the  decrease  in  the  Old  World.  Could  it  have  been  other- 
wise, had  France  gained  the  victory.  Popery  would  still  have  been  in 
its  glory.  But  God's  plan  must  be  carried  out,  let  the  result  be  what  it 
may. 

Again.  Keep  in  mind  that  the  same  old  Napoleon  is  the  great  king 
which  Daniel,  or  in  other  words,  which  the  angel  told  Daniel,  should 
arise  up  in  the  latter  time  of  their  kingdom,  understanding  dark  sen- 
tences, and  that  he  made  the  fifth  head  for  the  dragon.  In  the  chapter 
on  the  Revelation,  I  will  show  you  his  career  in  Moscow,  which  Avill  still 
make  matters  more  plain.  You  can  now  account  for  the  watcher  that 
came  down  from  heaven,  and  said,  "  Cut  the  tree  down."  This  watcher 
was  the  Angel  Gabriel,  who  overruled  the  armies  so  as  to  cut  the  tree 
down. 

Now,  in  this  connection,  j^ou  must  keep  in  mind,  that,  as  the  United 
States  is  only  the  division  of  England  and  not  a  kingdom,  no  crown  worn 
in  it,  and  as  it  is  the  toes  of  the  image,  and  in  the  New  World,  it  must 
have  a  tree  to  represent  Nebuchadnezzar's  tree.  This  tree  is  the  Liberty 
Tree,  the  liberty  pole,  a  tree  cut  from  the  stump  and  transplanted.  This 
Union  was  born  from  England  before  Nebuchadnezzar's  tree  was  cut 
down.  This  liberty  tree  was  cut  down  in  the  Bull  Run  battle,  and  the 
very  moment  it  was  cut  down  with  the  spiritual  battle-ax,  the  Union 


army  ran.  This  shows  where  the  spirit  of  the  beast  stands.  The  Union, 
under  Abraham,  stands  in  the  spirit  of  the  dragon,  and  Abraham  and 
his  Cabinet  represent  the  beast  with  seven  heads.  The  first  State  that 
seceded  had- a  tree  on  its  flag,  which  represents  the  tree  under  which 
God  met  Abramin  the  Trinity,  and  under  it  Isaac,  who  was  a  type  of  Jesus, 
was  promised.  Jesus  being  Isaac's  representative,  must  be  here  before 
Abraham  leaves  the  Presidential  chair,  when  God  will  be  in  the  Trinity  in 
Jesus,  when  he  will  meet  Abraham  under  that  tree,  or  meet  the  sceptre 
of  Abraham  under  the  tree.  Now  these  are  matters  of  fact,  such  as  the 
wisdom  of  the  world  cannot  gainsay.  God  says,  "  my  ways  are  not  your 
ways,  neither  are  my  thoughts  j-our  thoughts." 

I  will  now  notice  another  item  connected  with  Nebuchadnezzar's  tree. 
Mark,  as  stated  above,  the  spirit  of  the  woman  passed  from  the  head  of 
the  woman,  as  implied  in  the  bonnets  made  for  Aaron,  into  the  head  of 
Aaron.  At  the  same  time  they  made  breeches  for  him  to  hide  his  naked- 
ness— Ex.  28  :  42.  These  breeches  reached  all  the  way  from  the  loins  to 
the  thighs,  a  length  at  most,  of  nine  inches.  It  was  this  spirit  of  the 
woman  that  made  Xebuchadnezzar  the  golden  head  of  the  image,  and 
that  made  his  tree  grow  to  Heaven,  and  the  sight  thereof  to  the  ends  of 
the  earth.  Here  j^ou  must  keep  in  mind  the  Heaven  referred  to  was 
this  Union,  as  the  Eevelator  saw  descend  out  of  Heaven  from  God,  as 
proven  in  the  Bridegroom.  When  the  tree  was  cut  down  by  England 
and  France,  the  spirit  left  the  man  and  returned  to  the  woman  again, 
where  they  stand  as  the  stump  of  the  tree.  And  when  Louis  Napoleon 
takes  the  throne  of  France,  he  takes  a  wife,  who  puts  the  iron  and  brass' 
band  around  the  stump  of  the  tree,  by  putting  the  hoops  around  the  wo- 
men. The  women  now  stand  as  the  stump  of  the  tree,  with  an  iron  and 
brass  band.  This  spirit,  you  see,  comes  from  the  beast,  from  Bonaparte's 
side  of  the  house. 

Now  keep  in  mind  that  prior  to  cutting  the  tree  down,  the  men  of 
England  wore  the  breeches  set  in  type,  by  the  breeches  made  for  Aaron. 
From  the  time  that  tl>e  tree  was  cut  down,  the  breeches  have  been  grad- 
ually leaving  the  men  of  England,  and  creeping  upon  the  women  of  the 
world.  Whilst  now  the  women  stand  under  the  hat,  and  in  the  coat,  in 
the  hoops,  and  in  the  breeches,  and  in  the  spirit  of  the  Serpent  which 
was  hid  by  the  breeches  made  for  Aaron.  This  serpent  was  similar  to 
the  one  that  beguiled  mother  Eve,  and  there  can  be  no  doubt  that  a  sim- 
ilar serpent  will  beguile  many  of  these  women  who  manifest  this  spirit 
by  lifting  their  skirts  so  high  when  they  walk  out,  or  those  who  drag 
those  long  ti*ains,  or  trails  after  them.  Mark,  a  serpent  trails  himself  on 
the  ground.  I  don't  utter  these  things  because  I  find  fault  with  them; 
no,  but  because  to  show  you  that  God,  in  the  spirit  of  the  devil,  makes 
you  do  it.  I  should  never  find  fault  in  a  woman  pulling  up  her  skirts, 
for  there  is  nothing  that  I  like  to  see  better  than  a  woman's  leg.  But  I 
do  dislike  to  see  those  dirty,  filthy  trains.  Had  it  not  been  for  those 
lioops  and  ti'ains,  not  half  of  the  number  of  women  would  have  perished 
in  the  recent  conflagration  in  the  capitol  of  Chili,  in  South  America. 
But  as  the  dragon  is  in  the  spirit  of  this  serpent,  the  hoops  and  trains 
must  do  their  work.  It  would  be  useless  for  me  to  say,  cast  them  from 
you  as  you  would  a  viper,  for  I  know  you  can't  do  it  until  God  makes 
you.  I  also  know  that  that  time  is  close  at  hand.  Yes,  when  he  meets 
Abraham  under  the  tree,  then  they  will  be  hurled  away  as  vipers. 

Now,   before  I  proceed  to  make  the  connections  I  must  pay  a  passing 
notice  to  the  charter  in  the  Oak  tree.     I  have  been  charged  with  making 
a  misstatement.     This  I  may  be  as  likely  to  do  as  anybody  else  quoting 
3 


26 

from  history.  I  am  told  that  it  was  the  Charter  of  Connecticut  that 
-was  hid  in  the  Oak  tree,  instead  of  that  of  Khode  Island,  as  stated  in 
the  Bridegroom.  In  examining  history  I  find  it  the  case.  I  quoted 
that  from  memery,  not  having  read  that  for  several  years.  •  But  let  me 
ask,  what  difference  does  it  make  whether  the  Charter  of  Rhode  Island 
or  that  of  any  otiier  vState  was  in  the  Oak.  I  only  pointed  to  the  fact 
to  show  that  the  Colonies,  as  well  as  the  Union,  stood  as  Eve  in  Adam. 
I  now  see  that  the  error  is  only  calculated  to  make  the  matter  more 
plain  and  forcible.  Both  Charters  were  resumed  after  Mary  and  Wil- 
liam took  the  throne  of  England.  It  does  not  say  whether  the  Rhode 
Island  Charter  was  in  the  Oiik  or  not,  but  the  Connecticut  Charter  was. 
Connecticut  stood  in  the  spirit  of  Adam,  and  Ehode  Island  in  that  of 
Eve.  The  Chcirter  of  Connecticut  was  the  spirit  of  woman,  and  that 
being  in  the  Oak,  implies  Eve  in  Adam  for  the  Colonies  and  the  Gov- 
ernment of  Payton  Eandolph.  Ehode  Island  being  admitted  into  the 
Union  on  that"  Charter,  places  the  throne  of  the  Union  in  the  spirit  of 
Adam,  with  Eve  in  him.  Thus  you  see  that  it  is  plainer  and  more  fea- 
sible than  before.  As  stated  in  the  Bridegroom,  the  Prince  of  Wales 
planting  the  Oak  tree  in  the  Central  Park  of  New  York,  placed  Adam  in 
the  garden  of  the  Lord.  I  will  now  add  to  that,  as  he  also  planted  an 
acorn  at  the  grave  of  Washington,  it  placed  the  Union  in  the  spirit  of 
Adam  and  Eve.  The  new  Union  coming  out  of  the  old  Union,  placed 
the  Union  in  the  spirit  of  Eve  and  Adam.  The  Democrat  party  of  the 
old  Union  represented  Adam,  from  the  day  of  its  birth,  whilst  the  spirit 
of  the  new  Union  stands  in  the  women  of  the  South,  which  will  be 
proven  as  I  proceed.  Before  doing  so  I  must  say  a  few  words  more  on 
the  Union,  as  Eve  in  Adam. 

In  all  Kingdoms  a  Queen  gives  birth  to  an  heir  for  the  throne,  but  as 
the  Union  is  not  a  kingdom,  there  is  no  Queen  to  give  birth  to  the  heir 
of  the  Presidential  chair.  This  is  the  reason  why  men  must  give  birth 
to  an  heir  for  the  chair.  Hence,  men  does  the  woman's  work.  Men 
have  to  be  man  and  woman,  both — Eve  in  Adam.  Men  elect  a  President 
and  this  gives  birth  to  an  heir  to  the  chair  for  four  years.  Again,  why 
must  there  have  been  one  elected  every  four  years ;  why  not  every  ten  ? 
Because,  every  fourth  year  is  leap  year,  the  woman's  year;  hence,  an 
election  for  President  must  take  place  evexy  fourth  year.  The  men  must 
be  women  every  fourth  year.  This  is  God's  reason  for  having  the  Pres- 
ident elected  on  leap  year,  because  the  throne  belongs  to  Jesus,  the  seed 
of  the  woman.  Now,  if  you  want  any  more  evidence  that  the  Union 
stood  Eve  in  Adam,  then  just  wait  a  few  months  until  God  comes,  and 
He  will  give  it  to  you. 

I  shall  now  proceed  to  make  the  connections,  and  before  doing  so  must 
refer  you  to  what  I  stated  in  the  Bridegroom,  viz:  That  certain  men, 
women  and  children,  as  well  as  beasts  and  hoi'ses,  were  tyj)es,  and  when 
the  letters  are  made  to  those  tj^pes,  certain  men  and  women  represent 
them  in  power,  in  thrones;  as,  for  instance,  England  is  Daniel's  Beast, 
with  the  horns  united  into  one  kingdom,  and  stands  in  the  spirit  of  the 
little  horn,  and  now  represented  bj"  Her  Majesty  Queen  Victoria.  These 
horns  had  previousl}^  been  represented  by  men  as  kings.  The  Apostles 
were  represented  by  the  States  in  the  union,  and  thus  the  types  are  let- 
tered, in  making  these  different  connections,  you  will  see  that  certain 
men  and  women  represent  a  number  of  types,  represent  several  dittercnt 
persons  having  lived  in  different  ages  of  the  world.  Now,  with  this  ex- 
planation I  shall  proceed  : 

Eve  was  taken  out  of  Adam  in  the  Garden  of  the  Lord,  as  in  Gen.  2d 


27 

chapter.  The  Gai-den  of  the  Lord  was  eastwai'd  in  Eden.  Gen.  2,  8 : 
9th  verse.  From  this  forward  Eve  w^as  the  golden  head.  This  spirit  in 
God's  kingdom  made  Nebuchadnezzar  .the  golden  head,  and  when  a 
beast  this  spirit  was  trodden  under  foot,  and  comes  out  in  England  with 
Queen  Victoria,  the  golden  head  on  the  throne.  This  Union  born  from 
England,  but,  as  Daniel  has  it,  onlj'  the  division  of  England,  it  stands  in 
the  spirit  of  Adam,  the  golden  head,  as  Eve  in  him.  This  new  throne 
coming  out  of  the  old  one  is  Eve  taken  out  of  Adam  in  the  Garden  of 
the  Lord,  and  stands  in  the  spirit  of  the  golden  head  the  women  of  the 
South.  This  places  the  Union  in  the  spirit  of  the  Land  of  Eden,  and  the 
Southern  States  as  the  Garden  of  the  Lord  eastward  in  Eden.  This  is 
palpably  true  when  you  take  into  consideration  that  the  Union  extends 
to  the  Pacific  Coast,  and  the  Southern  States  do  not  extend  half  way. 
This  places  the  Northern  States  in  the  spirit  of  Adam,  governed  by  the 
Democratic  party,  and  Eve  in  the  Southern  States. 

Again  :  The  powers  that  have  taken  the  place  of  the  Democratic  power 
say  they  will  restore  the  old  Union  by  putting  the  South  back  into  it 
again.  In  answer  to  this  I  have  only  to  say  what  I  have  always  said 
since  the  difficulty  commenced — if  you  can  find  any  evidence  in  the 
Bible  showing  you  that  Eve  was  put  back  into  Adam  again,  then  you 
have  some  evidence  that  you  can  put  the  South  back  into  the  Union 
again.  But  as  there  is  no  evidence  of  this  character  to  be  found  in  the 
Bible,  1  now  say  to  you  that  all  the  armies  on  the  face  of  the  earth 
cannot  accomplish  the  feat. 

Again  :  The  powers  that  be  say  if  they  cannot  restore  the  Union  they 
Avill  kill  the  South,  or  exterminate  it.  Now,  I  say  as  I  have  always  said, 
if  you  can  find  any  evidence  in  the  Bible  that  Adam  killed  Eve,  or  ex- 
terminated her,  then  you  can  have  some  hopes  of  accomplishing  the 
great  feat  undertaken.  But  as  no  such  evidence  is  to  be  found  in  the 
Bible,  I  can  onh^  say  as  above,  that  had  you  all  the  armies  of  the  world 
you  would  fail  in  accomplishing  the  task.  If  you  kill  every  man  in  the 
Southern  Confederacy  you  do  not  affect  in  the  least  the  spirit  of  the 
throne  inasmuch  as  it  stands  in  the  woman. 

Again  :  I  proved,  too,  in  the  Bridegroom  that  Eve  was  the  soul  of 
Adam,  and  when  Eve  was  taken  out  of  him  he  had  no  soul.  Just  so 
with  this  Union,  until  the  close  of  Buchanan's  reign,  or  in  other  words 
until  Abraham's  election,  the  soul  was  in  the  Union;  the  very  mo- 
ment the  new  throne  came  out  of  the  old  one  it  had  no  soul.  And  as 
Eve  supplied  the  souls  of  all  men,  so  this  new  throne  must  be  the  soul 
of  all  thrones  on  earth,  and  will  be  supplied  them  by  God  admitting  them 
into  this  soul,  the  germ  of  his  throne. 

We  will  now  notice  another  class  of  connections.  Cain  and  Abel 
were  begotten  by  Adam — Cain  to  represent  Adam,  and  Abel  to  repre- 
sent Eve.  Abraham  is  the  representative  of  Cain,  whilst  Davis  is  the 
representative  of  Abel.  Here  the  reader  may  object  and  say  the  Demo- 
cratic party  did  not  elect  Abraham.  To  this  I  saj-  that  they  did,  for 
had  none  of  them  voted  for  him  he  would  not  have  been  elected.  This 
makes  the  Democratic  party  which  stands  as  Adam,  natural  God,  the 
father  of  Abraham,  the  father  of  Cain.  And  Davis  in  his  power  came 
out  of  the  old  Union,  which  stood  in  the  spirit  of  Adam,  and  therefore 
represents  Abel.  Thus  you  see  that  this  is  all  right;  Cain  is  represent- 
ing Adam,  whilst  Abel  is  representing  Eve.  Cain  fighting  for  Adam 
and  Abel  fighting  for  Eve.  You  must  now  keep  in  mind  that  the  two 
poAvers  represent  the  two  men,  headed  b}^  Abraham  and  Davis. 

Again:  Cain  killed  Abel  because  Abel's  offering  had  been  accepted 


28 

bj  God.  Now,  Abraham  must  kill  Davis,  or  kill  bis  power.  But  mark, 
Cain  killiug  Abel  did  not  affect  Eve-;  so  Avben  Abraham  kills  the  power 
of  Davis  it  will  not  affect  Eve  in  the  women.  Again  :  Jesus  says  "  ye  do 
not  understand  my  speech,  even  because  ye  cannot  bear  my  word.  Ye 
are  of  your  father  the  devil,  and  the  lust  of  your  father  ye  will  do.  He 
was  a  muraerer  from  the  beginning,  and  abode  not  in  the  truth,  because 
there  was  no  truth  in  him.  When  he  speaketh  a  lie  he  speaketh  of  his 
own,  for  he  is  a  liar  and  the  father  of  it."  John,  8  ;  43,  44.  This  language 
makes  the  first  murderer  the  devil,  and  everybody  who  believes  the 
Bible  believes  that  Cain  Avas  a  murderer  from  the  beginning,  and  a  liar 
and  the  father  of  it.  This  places  x\braham  and  his  power  in  the  spirit 
of  the  devil.  He  also  represents  the  murderer,  and  the  liar,  and  the 
father  of  lies.  Now,  keep  in  mind  that  this  all  stands  in  the  power. 
Abraham  is  a  good  man  enough,  speaking  after  the  manner  of  man,  but 
the  spirit  that  overrules  him  places  him  in  this  position. 

Again  :  As  tlie  language  above  was  uttered  by  Jesus,  who  had  also 
been  first  Adam,  we  will  notice  another  connection,  viz :  Cain  was  the 
first  murderer,  and  therefore  stood  first.  Jesus  was  crucified  between 
two  thieves,  and  a  murderer  let  loose  in  his  place.  Luke  23  :  18,  19. 
This  placed  the  murderer  in  Jesus'  place.  We  now  come  up  to  the  time 
when  God  left  the  Union  in  Clay,  which  represented  Jesus  leaving  earth. 
Pierce  and  Buchanan  are  the  two  thieves,  and  Abraham  the  murderer, 
now  last,  and  in  Jesus'  place,  first  last;  just  as  Jesus  said,  there  are  first 
which  shall  be  last,  and  last  which  shall  be  first.  Thus  these  connec- 
tions come  in  just  as  though  the  master  builder  had  laid  the  plan. 

Again :  God  drove  the  man  out  of  the  garden,  and  placed  at  the  east 
end  a  flaming  sword  to  keep  the  way  of  the  Tree  of  Life.  Gen.  3  :  24. 
You  will  see  here  that  he  did  not  drive  the  woman  out  of  the  garden. 
Also,  that  he  says  man,  he  drove  the  man  out,  shoAving  most  conclusive- 
ly that  it  is  a  type.  Had  he  said  he  drove  Adam  out,  then  it  would  have 
been  represented  here  by  driving  the  Democrats  out.  But  as  it  is  it 
means  drive  the  power  out  that  is  destroying  the  Garden  of  the  Lord. 
"We  now  have  the  sword  at  the  east  of  the  garden,  turning  every  way  to 
keep  the  way  of  the  Tree  of  Life.  I  stated  in  the  Bridegroom  that  Eve 
was  the  germ  of  the  Tree  of  Life.  God  also  was  in  the  midst  of  the 
garden  at  the  time.  Jesus  comes  the  seed  of  the  woman,  and  made  of  a 
woman,  and  God  in  Him  will  be  the  Tree  of  Life,  whose  way  these 
swords  are  keeping.  They  are  guarding  the  road  by  which  he  is  to  pass 
to  the  throne.  I  have  now  got  through  with  these  connections,  and 
shall  come  up  to  Abraham  of  Old. 

The  Trinity  being  established  in  Abraham,  Isaac  and  Jacob,  places 
this  throne  in  the  spirit  of  Isaac,  in  whom  God  stood,  hence  he  left  this 
throne  in  Clay,  who  stood  as  son,  Webster  as  father,  and  Calhoun  as 
ghost.  To  prove  this,  ihe  ghost  of  Washington  appeared  to  Calhoun  a 
short  time  before  his  death.  Abraham  of  old  was  called  to  replace  the 
first  Adam.  The  present  Abraham  was  called  by  the  same  God  to  re- 
place the  Democrat  party,  the  first  Adam.  Abraham  also  represenis 
Esau,  who  was  live  ghost  for  the  devil.  Abraham  is  a  descendant  of 
Esau.  Esau  was  the  head  of  the  Gentile  nations.  This  places  Abra- 
ham the  representative  of  two  persons,  of  the  Democrats,  Adam,  and  of 
the  Eepublicans,  Esau  the  head  of  the  Gentile  nations.  Davis  represents 
Isaac  and  Jacob.  -  Jacob  was  live  ghost  for  God's  Kingdom,  and  as  the 
ghost  is  the  soul  supplied  by  Eve,  it  stands  in  the  women,  whom  Davis  is 
representing.  He  also  represents  Isaac,  who  wa*s  the  first  white  child 
ever   born,  and  a  type  of  Jesus,  in  whom  God  will  stand  as  he  stood  in 


29 

Isaac.  This  places  Davis  in  the  shadow  of  Jesus,  impljnng  that  the 
substance  is  close  by.  This  places  the  South  in  the  spirit  of  the  Jews, 
and  the  North  in  the  spii'itof  the  Gentiles. 

Again,  the  South  secede,  -which  represents  the  Jews  leaving  Egypt  for 
the  land  of  Canaan.  This  brings  spiritual  Egypt  and  spiritual  Canaan 
into  the  Uirion.  The  North,  standing  as  Egypt,  as  the  South  as  Canaan. 
The  South  has  been  in  bondage  from  the  time  the  line  of  thii-ty-six 
thirty  -was  stretched  across  the  Union,  when  the  North  said,  "  Thus  far 
thou  shalt  come,  and  no  farther,  but  we  will  go  as  far  over  on  your 
side  as  we  please."  The  Jews  were  in  bondage  four  hundred  years. 
The  South  was  in  bondage  forty  j^ears;  from  1820  to  1860.  Again, 
the  Jews  made  war  on  the  Canaanites,  the  black  men,  but  could  not 
drive  them  out,  but  made  them  subservient  unto  them  ;  Judges,  1st  chap. 
The  Angel  met  them  afterward  and  told  them  that  as  they  had  not 
di'iven  them  out  that  God  would  not  do  as  He  had  pi'omiscd,  and  that 
they  should  not  drive  them  out,  and  they  should  be  as  thorns  in  their 
sides — Judges,  2nd  ch.  1st  to  3d  verse.  Now,  the  Gentiles  take  the  place 
of  the  Jews,  and  they  make  Avar  to  drive  them  out  of  spiritual  Canaan, 
but  mark,  they  will  be  as  thorns  in  their  sides ;  this  will  be  as  true  as 
that  there  is  a  God.  When  Jesus  comes  the  representative  of  the  stone 
Joshua  sat  up,  he  will  be  spiritual  Joshua,  when  he  will  make  them  sub- 
seiTient  unto  him,  then  they  will  be  as  thorns  in  the  sides  of  those 
trying  to  free  them.  My  ways  are  not  yo"ur  ways,  neither  are  my 
thoughts  your  thoughts,  saith  the  Lord.  We  will  now  pass  on  to  Neb- 
uchadnezzar, the  golden  head. 

Here  you  must  keep  in  mind  that  he  stood  the  representative  of  the 
first  Adam  ;  Eve  in  Adam,  and  this  Union  stood  the  same.  God  left  it 
in  Clay,  when  Pierce  stood  in  the  place  of  the  golden  head.  Pierce 
took  the  place  of  General  Taylor,  in  whose  term  Clay  died  in  the  Sen- 
ate Chamber,  the  throne  of  God.  Pierce  represented  Nebuchadnezzar 
the  beast,  who  represented  Cain.  Buchanan  represented  the  dead  ghost 
in  the  devil,  Abel.  Abel  being  dead  in  the  devil,  was  the  reason  Avhy 
Buchanan  had  to  fill  Pierce's  place.  It  was  also  the  reason  why  Bu- 
chanan could  have  no  wife.  The  spirit  of  the  woman  was  dead  in  the 
devil,  hence  he  could  have  no  wife.  For  this  purpose  God  had  him 
raised  up  in  the  counsels  of  the  Nation,  without  a  wife,  in  order  to  fill 
the  Presidential  chair,  as  the  last  President  of  the  Union.  Abraham 
comes  in  the  representative  of  Belshazzar.  Abraham  stands  as  Esau 
who  was  live  ghost  of  the  devil.  Had  the  devil  had  no  live  ghost, 
Nebuchadnezzar  could  have  had  no  son.  Hence,  Belshazzar  was  live 
ghost  for  his  father,  who  was  in  the  spirit  of  Cain,  and  Abrahdm  being 
live  ghost  for  Cain,  represents  Belshazzar.  And  Davis  stands  in  the 
shadow  of  King  Cyrus,  unto  whom  all  the  kingdoms  of  the  earth  was 
given,  who  will  be  represented  by  Jesus,  who  will  receive  all  the  king- 
doms of  the  earth.  This  connection  comes  in  in  carrying  out  the  whole 
subject,  wlien  it  will  be  made  more  plain. 

We  now  come  up  to  the  Pope.  The  Pope  is  represented  in  the 
Trinity  in  three  kingdoms,  as  shown  above,  viz :  Rome,  Spain  and 
France,  as  anti-God.  The  three  men  who  have  occupied  the  Presi- 
dential chair  since  God  left  in  Clay,  represent  this  Trinity  as  anti-God. 
In  God's  place  as  is  the  Pope.  Pierce  represented  Rome  in  spirit, 
was  the  type  in  Nebuchadnezzar,  the  beast,  whose  anti-type  was  Cain, 
Buchanan  represents  the  spirit  of  Spain,  which  was  dead  ghost  in  the 
Pope;  her  only  type  was  the  ghost  dead  in  Cain.  Abraham  repre- 
lents  the  spirit  of  France,  which  was,  and  is,  live  ghost  for  the  Pope,

■whoso  type  was  Belsbazzar,  live  ghost  for  bis  father.  Belshazzar's  anti- 
type was  Esau,  who  was  live  ghost  for  the  devil,  and  thus  these  con- 
nections all  come  in  complete.  Davis  is  the  representative  of  the  live 
ghost  in  the  women  of  the  South,  the  spirit  of  the  golden  head,  whose 
anti-type  was  Eve,  now  represented  by  her  Most  Gracious  Majesty, 
Queen  Victoria,  now  occupying  the  fourth  throne  in  the  Ijingdora,  in 
the.  image  Avhicb  was  the  spiritual  wife  of  the  dragon,  and  therefore 
her  Majesty  w^ill  be  the  spiritual  wife  of  Jesus,  whose  throne  is  in  spirit 
in  the  women  of  the  South,  whom  Davis  is  representing,  and  thus  the 
whole  sums  up  complete. 

Again,  shows  Abraham  beyond  a  doubt,  in  the  spirit  of  the  dragon. 
France  stands  in  the  spirit  of  the  dragon,  and  Louis  Napoleon  has  to 
make  the  seventh  head  for  him.  In  the  next  chapter,  which  will  be 
on  the  Eevelation,  I  will  prove  to  you  that  Abraham  and  his  Cabinet 
stand  in  the  spirit  of  the  great  red  dragon,  seen  in  Heaven,  with  seven 
heads  and  ten  horns— Eev.  12th  ch.  This  dragon  in  Heaven  was  a  type, 
and  must  be  represented  three  times  on  earth,  in  the  kingdom  of  Heaven. 
This  was  represented  in  England,  when  our  fathers  rebelled,  and  is  now 
again  represented  on  this  throne,  when  the  South  rebelled,  and  will  be 
again  represented  in  England  in  Louis  Napoleon,  when  he  conquers  Eng- 
land to  get  that  spirit  to  make  the  seventh  head  with. 

Again,  the  Eevelator  says  he  drew  one  third  part  of  the  stars  frpm 
Heaven  with  his  long  tail.  In  the  Bridegroom  I  proved  to  you  that  tho 
new  earth  upon  w^hich  the  Eevelator  saw  the  new  Jerusalem  descend 
was  this  Continent,  and  that  the  flag  of  the  Union  was  the  new  Heaven 
referred  to  by  the  Eevelator.  The  stars  are  set  in  a  blue  field  to  repre- 
sent the  starry  throne  of  God  on  High.  This  flag,  you  must  recollect, 
had  just  thirty-three  stars  on  it  when  Abraham  was  elected,  and  he  had 
hardly  taken  his  seat  before  eleven  of  them  were  swept  off.  Eleven  is 
just  one  third  of  thirty-three,  which  proves  most  conclusivelj^  that  the 
fl.ag  was  the  Heaven  referred  to,  and  that  Abraham  and  his  Cabinet  are 
in  the  spirit  of  that  red  dragon.  All  these  things  will  be  more  abundant- 
ly proven  in  other  chapters. 

I  will  now  notice  Abraham,  as  Belshazzar.  Belsbazzar  made  a  great 
feast  and  drank  wine  out  of  the  gold  and  silver  vessels  of  the  Lord,  and 
praised  the  gods  of  gold  and  of  silver,  of  brass,  of  ii'on,  of  wood  and  of 
stone.  At  the  time  this  feast  was  going  on  the  fingers  of  a  man's  hand 
came  forth,  and  wrote  over  against  the  candlestick  on  the  plaster  of  the 
wall  of  the  King's  palace,  and  the  king  saw  the  piirt  of  the  hand  that 
wrote.  This  made  the  joints  of  his  loins  loose,  and  his  knees  smote  one 
against  another — Daniel  5th  ch.  Just  such  a  feast  as  this  took  place  in 
Washington  at  the  time  of  Abraham's  iiiauguration,  notwithstanding 
the  forebodings  of  the  destruction  of  hundreds  of  thousands  of  lives. 

Again.  The  hand-wa-iting  on  the  wall  of  Belshazzar's  palace, -was  the 
type  of  the  wall  of  this  Union  in  the  written  instrument  called  the  Con- 
stitution. JSTow,  as  Abraham  represents  Belshazzar  in  the  connections, 
so  he  is  "weighed  in  the  balance  and  found  w^anting,"  and  his  kingdom 
will  be  taken  from  him  and  given  to  the  Medes  and  Persians,  as  will  be 
explained  before  I  close.  Moreover,  as  Belshazzar  was  slain  in  that  very 
night,  Abraham  must  make  the  letter  to  that  type,  his  reign  being  the 
night  of  the  Union.  Daniel  the  first  read  the  hand-writing,  and  knew 
the  meanina:  of  it.     Daniel  the  second  also  knows  the  meaning  of  it. 

Again.  Belshazzar  and  his  kingdom  worshipped  a  whole  batch  of 
gods  who  could  neither  see,  hear,  nor  walk.  These  are  the  very  kind  of 
gods  that  Abraham's  people  are  worshipping.     I  have  no  doubt   they 


31 

will  say  that  Catholics  worship  these  gods.  "Well,  I  will  agree  to  this, 
that  Catholics  do  worship  these  gods,  and  that  the  Protestants  worship 
the  golden  god,  who  is  equally  as  blind,  deaf  and  maimed  as  the  other 
gods.  jSTebuchadnezzar  made  the  golden  god  and  set  him  up  on  the 
plains  of  Dura,  while  he  was  j'et  the  golden  head.  All  nations  fell  down 
and  worshipped  this  golden  god.  None  but  the  Hebrew  children  refused 
to  worship  him.  For  this  three  of  them  were  cast  into  the  fiery  furnace, 
heated  with  seven  extra  heats. 

Again.  This  golden  god,  made  and  worshipped  whilst  Nebuchadnez- 
zar was  yet  the  golden  head,  belongs  to  this  Union,  the  golden  head  ia 
Adam;  and  if  ever  a  golden  god  was  worshipped  faithfully,  the  people 
of  this  "Union  have  done  it,  they  will  carry  off  the  palm.  But  mark 
now,  Abraham,  who  represents  Belsliazzar,  and  also  France,  has  bi'ought 
the  other  gods  in,  and  you  have  now  got  the  whole  batch;  none  of  them 
can  see,  hear,  or  walk;  they  are  all  dummies.  The  only  God  in  the 
world  that  can  see,  hear,  and  walk,  is  the  one  that  the  four  Hebrew 
children  woi'shipped,  viz  :  the  God  of  Abraham,  Isaac  and  Jacob,  of  old 
— the  same  that  the  Hebrews  have  worshipped  in  the  golden  head,  Eve 
in  Adam,  and  the  same  they  worshij)  now,  which  is  fully  proven  in  the 
Bridegroom. 

Again.  I  stated  above  that  in  the  next  chapter  I  would  notice  old 
Bonaparte's  doings  in  Moscow.  I  will  also  notice  them  here,  as  they 
will  come  in  here  as  well  as  there.  Mark,  old  Napoleon  helped  to  cut 
down  the  tree  that  was  the  type  of  the  extent  of  this  worship,  which 
extended  to  the  ends  of  the  earth.  This  was  a  manifestation  of  the  de- 
struction of  image-worship  with  the  destruction  of  the  tree  and  the 
image,  and  as  he  lived  in  the  latter  time  of  their  kingdom,  the  worship 
could  not  have  long  to  run  after  him.  Old  Napoleon  was  the  cause  of 
Moscow  being  burnt;  this  was  the  type  set  on  earth,  of  the  destruction 
of  great  Babylon,  as  in  Eov.,  18th  chapter.  The  destruction  of  that  city 
the  type  of  Babylon  in  kingdoms,  and  in  the  tree,  in  churches.  You 
must  here  keep  in  mind  that  it  is  the  kingdoms  and  the  worships  of  the 
people  of  those  kingdoms,  that  constitute  great  Babylon.  Popery  is  the 
mother  of  harlots.  This  makes  Protestants  her  daughters,  and  as  the 
Union  is  the  toes  of  the  image,  of  course  it  belongs  to  the  image,  and  as 
Protestantism  is  the  worship  in  the  toes  of  the  image,  having  come  out 
of  Englandj  the  feet  of  the  image,  both  worships  belong  to  the  image, 
one  as  the  mother,  the  other  as  her  daughter.  So  when  the  image  is 
broken  to  pieces,  all  tJie  worships  will  be  broken  to  pieces. 

Again.  The  destruction  of  old  Bonaparte's  arm}^  of  four  hundred 
thousand  men  on  his  retreat  from  Moscow,  set  the  type  on  earth  of  the 
supper  of  the  great  God,  as  in  Eev.  19  :  17  to  21,  inclusive,  which  read, 
in  part,  as  follows:  "And  I  saw  an  angel  stand  in  the  sun,  and  he  cried 
with  a  loud  voice,  saying,  to  all  the  fowls  that  fly  in  the  heavens,  come 
and  gather  yourselves  together  unto  the  supper  of  the  great  God.  That 
ye  may  eat  the  flesh  of  kings, 'and  the  flesh  of  captains,  and  the  flesh  of 
mighty  men,  and  the  flesh  of  horses,  and  of  them  that  sit  on  them,  and 
the  flesh  of  all  men,  both  free  and  bond,  both  small  and  great.  And  I  saw 
the  beast,  and  the  kings  of  the  earth,  and  their  armies,  gathered  together 
to  make  war  against  him  that  sat  on  the  horse,  and  against  his  army." 
This  great  supper  will  be  summed  up  in  fighting  the  great  battle  of 
Armageddon,  as  in  Eev.,  16th  chapter.  This  type  was  set  on  earth  by 
the  destruction  of  old  Bonaparte's  army,  and  this  war  in  the  Union  com- 
mences this  supper,  standing  where  it  ought  not,  as  Jesus  said.  The 
personage  riding  the  horse  will  be  Jesus. 


82 

Again.  About  the  time  of  the  burning  of  Moscow,  and  of  the  destruc- 
tion of  this  army,  a  theati'C  was  burned  in  Eichmond,  Virginia,  the  capi- 
tal of  the  State.  In  this  conflagration  many  lives  were  lost.  This  set 
the  type  on  this  continent,  the  New  World.  Now,  when  Abraham 
comes  to  the  throne,  in  the  spirit  of  Belshazzar  and  Napoleon,  the  first 
and  last  heads  of  the  dragon,  the  letter  is  being  made  to  the  type  by  the 
destruction  of  the  Union,  a  nation.  And  whilst  I  am  writing  this  chap- 
ter, tbe  news  arrives  of  a  great  calamity  in  Santiago,  the  capital  of  Chile, 
where  two  thousand  women  lost  tboir  lives  by  the  burning  of  a  church. 
The  theater  has  got  into  the  Church.  Mark,  now,  this  is  the  head  of  all 
churches  on  earth,  and  all  the  kingdoms  and  Churches  on  earth  consti- 
tuted great  Bab3dou.  All  the  known  world  constitute  great  Babylon, 
Protestants  included. 

Again.  No  one  can  read  the  account  of  that  calamity,  but  must  see 
with  a  moment's  reflection,  that  it  was  the  spirit  of  the  beast  that 
brought  it  about.  A  priest,  direct  from  the  Pope,  who  is  the  beast,  the 
eighth  but  of  the  seven,  had  just  arrived  in  Santiago.  He  informed  the 
officiating  priest  that  his  illuminations  were  nothing  compared  to  those 
in  Pome,  when  the  officiating  priest  told  him  that  he  would  give  him 
one  such  as  the  world  had  never  seen  before.  He  was  faithful  to  his 
word,  and  the  result  you  all  know.  Now  could  it  have  been  possible  for 
this  priest  to  not  have  come  there,  does  any  one  suppose  the  calamity 
would  have  taken  place?  I  think  not.  But  God's  time  having  arrived, 
that  spirit  granted  the  devil  had  to  do  its  work.  You  ask,  why  could  it 
not  have  been  done  in  the  Union,  or  in  the  Old  World  ?  Answer,  the 
fire  nationally  had  commenced  in  the  Southern  States,  where  it  ought 
not,  so  this  must  take  place  in  a  southern  country,  standing  where  it 
ought  not. 

Again  :  This  fire  is  the  forerunner  of  the  seven  extra  heats  of  Nebu- 
chadnezzar's furnace,  Avhich  was  the  type  of  the  seven  vials  of  (xod's 
wrath  which  he  is  coming  to  pour  out  on  the  earth,  for  the  purpose  of 
destrojnng  the  mother  of  harlots  and  her  daughters,  who  have  been 
worshipping  gods  who  can  neither  see,  hear,  nor  walk.  All  worships 
in  the  world  stand  in  the  image,  and  golden  god,  and  are  all  harlot  wor- 
ships. All  the  churches  have  now  got  the  theatre  in  them,  all  fitted  up 
to  suit  the  golden  god.  Not  one  in  ten  but  what  goes  there  to  see  and 
be  seen.  Just  Avhat  people  go  to  the  theatre  for.  Then  come  out  of  her, 
my  people,  that  ye  be  not  participators  of  her  sins,  and  that  3'e  receive 
not  of  her  plagues.  Therefore  shall  there  come  io  one  day  death  and 
mourning  and  famine,  and  she  shall  be  utterlj^  burned  with  fire,  for 
strong  is  the  Lord  God  who  judgeth  her,  thus  saith  the  Lord.  Pev. 
18*:  4th  and  8th.  Yes,  all  the  churches,  except  the  Jewish  and  Friend 
Quakers,  stand  in  the  spirit  of  the  beast — in  the  spirit  of  the  devil. 
They  are  the  blind  leading  the  blind,  and  will  all  fall  in  the  ditch  to- 
gether. Then  come  out  of  her,  come  out  of  her  quickly,  as  not  a 
church  edifice  will  be  left  standing  by  the  year  '7L  I  do  not  mean 
to  say  they  will  be  burned  with  fire,  but  I  mean  to  say  that  not  one 
stone  will  be  left  on  another.     Let  this  suffice  on  this  head. 

Now,  a  few  words  more  with  Abraham  as  Belshazzar.  I  stated 
above  that  the  Constitution  of  the  Union  was  set  in  type  by  the 
handwriting  on  the  wall  of  Belshazzar's  palace.  In  the  Bridegroom 
I  proved  to  you  that  the  wall  had  fallen  down,  and  that  the  city  had 
no  gates  any  more.  This  was  proven  by  Abraham  sending  Vallan- 
dingham  out  South,  The  same  God  that  called  Abraham  makes  him 
act,  and  therefore  made  him  do  this  as  proof  of  no  gates.     I  will  now  add 


83 

anothei'  evidence  not  given  in  them.  In  Abraham's  answer  to  the  Dem- 
ocratic Committee  of  New  York,  his  quotations  are  entirely  from  the 
original  Constitution,  not  taking  one  word  from  the  Articles.  This  places 
the  Union  back  to  the  first  Congress  when  it  had  no  gates;  these  Articles 
being  passed  then  and  adopted  then,  and  adopted  by  the  States  uftei'- 
ward.  Positive  proof  that  there  are  no  gates  to  the  city,  and  positive 
proof  that  Jesus  is  coming  as  the  letter  to  the  typeof  Eandolph  as  Presi- 
dent. I  now  repeat,  as  in  the  Bridegroom,  that  no  other  man  can  get 
into  the  city  as  President,  there  being  no  gates  for  him  to  pass  through, 
and  for  the  same  reason  Abraham  can  never  get  out  of  the  city,  and 
therefore  is  the  only  available  man  if  another  election  is  to  be  held. 
Moreover,  if  any  other  man  is  elected,  Abraham  Avill  keep  the  chair  in 
spite  of  all  opposition,  as  there  are  no  gates  for  any  one  to  pass  through. 

I  now  pass  to  notice  the  Fiery  Furnace  and  Lion's  Den.  I  shall  notice 
these  in  connection.  The  three  Hebrews  cast  in  the  furnace  were  typi- 
cal of  the  Trinity  of  God.  The  fourth  person  seen  there  was  typical  of 
the  Body  of  Jesus  in  whom  the  Trinity  comes.  Eead  the  account.  I 
cannot  transcribe  it.  Daniel,  3d  chapter.  This  fourth  personage  did 
not  come  outof  the  furnace.  This  same  spirit  protected  Daniel  in  the 
lion's  den  by  closing  the  lion's  mouth.  After  Daniel  was  taken  out  his 
accusers  were  cast  in,  and  the  lions  broke  their  bones  before  ever  they 
came  to  the  ground.     These  things  keep  in  mind. 

We  now  pass  on  to  the  Throne  seen  by  the  Eevelator  in  Heaven, 
around  which  wei-e  burning  seven  lamps  of  fire,  said  to  be  the  sevea 
Spirits  of  God.  This  was  the  transferring  of  the  seven  extra  heats  of  the 
furnace  to  Heaven  in  the  spirit.  God  having  protected  those  in  the  fur- 
nace by  his  seven  spirits.  Rev.,  4th  chap.  In  the  5th  chapter,  6th  verse, 
we  find  Jesus  taking  his  Father's  throne,  as  the  lion  of  the  tribe  of  Ju- 
dah.  This  transfers  the  spirit  of  the  lion's  den  to  Heaven.  Now,  as 
shown  in  the  Bi'idegroom,  this  throne  in  Heaven,  and  all  connected  with 
it,  had  descended  to  earth  in  this  Union,  save  Him  that  sat  on  the 
throne  and  the  spirit  of  the  seven  lamps  of  fire,  which  were  sealed  up  in 
the  seven  vials  of  God's  wrath. 

Again  :  We  now  point  out  the  Fui'nace  and  Den.  South  Carolina  is 
the  lion's  den.  TVe  know  this  by  a  certain  type  and  letter.  The  king 
rolled  a 'stone  to  the  den's  mouth,  and  sealed  it  with  his  signet  and  the 
signet  of  his  lords.  Dan.  6:17.  A  number  of  ships  loaded  with  stone 
were  sunk  at  the  entrance  of  Charleston  harbor,  and  sealed  with  the 
signet  of  Abraham  and  his  lords.  This  proves  positively  that  the  en- 
trance to  Charleston  is  the  mouth  of  the  den.  This  makes  South  Caro- 
lina the  lion's  den.  Georgia,  Alabama,  and  Mississippi, , constitute  the 
fiery  furnace,  the  four  States  having  constituted  the  germ  of  the  Con- 
federacy. Hence  there  is  a  State  for  each  of  the  four  Hebrew  children 
taken  down  to  Nebuchadnezzar,  the  spirit  of  which  has  passed  on  down 
through  the  beast,  and  ti-ampled  under  foot  by  him  down  through  the 
image,  and  now  coming  out  of  the  toes  of  the  image  in  a  Confederacy, 
and  now  the  beast  is  trampling  that  under  foot  also. 

This  is  the  very  reason,  and  only  reason  too,  wh}^  Abraham  has  not  got 
possession  of  Charleston  ere  this.  You  will  see  by  reading  the  account 
that  Daniel  was  the  only  one  who  entered  by  the  mouth  of  the  den. 
His  persecutors  were  cast  in,  implying  that  they  were  cast  in  over  the 
wall  of  the  den.  But  as  all  things  in  South  Carolina,  as  well  as  in  the 
other  three  States,  stand  in  the  shadow  of  Jesus  the  lion  of  the  tribe  of 
Judah,  and  the  seven  spirits  of  God,  Abraham  will  likely  get  in  both 
the  den  and  furnace.     Indeed,  I  have  several  types  that  show  they  must 


34 

get  into  the  den,  if  not  the  furnace.  But  woe  to  them  if  Jesus  in  the 
Trinity  and  the  seven  spirits  of  God  take  the  furnace  and  den.  Mark, 
the  fire  came  out  of  the  furnace  and  slew  the  men  who  cast  in  the  He- 
bi^ws.  By  the  time  that  Jesus  comes  the  furnace  will  be  ready  for  the 
seven  spirits  of  God,  sealed  up  in  the  seven  vials  of  his  wrath.  This  will 
be  the  fire  which  will  destroy  the  world  of  mankind,  not  the  earth,  the 
type  ot  which  was  set  in  the  burning  of  Moscow,  the  Theatre  in  Eich- 
mond,  and  next  in  the  South  in  burning  cotton  and  cities,  and  lastly,  in 
the  church  at  Santiago,  Chile.  And  also  set  in  this  city  by  Abraham  in 
having  four  hundred  thousand  stamped  envelops,  each  with  a  head  on 
it,  burned  in  a  furnace  in  this  city,  in  the  first  year  of  his  reign.  All 
these  things  have  not  been  chance-work,  but  are  being  done  by  the  spirit 
granted  the  devil,  consequently  done  by  the  fore-knowledge  of  God,  all 
to  carry  out  his  plan,  and  men  machines  in  his  hands. 

Again.  This  is  the  same  Confederacy  seen  by  the  Prophet  Isaiah,  in 
the  8th  chapter,  11th  and  12th  verses :  "  For  the  Lord  spake  thus  to  me 
with  a  strong  hand,  and  instructed  me  that  I  should  not  walk  in  the  way 
of  these  people,  saying.  Say  ye  not,  A  Confedei-acy,  to  all  them  to  whom 
this  people  shall  say,  a  Confederacy,  neither  fear  ye  thei»  fear,  nor  be 
afraid,-"  You  will  see  by  reading  this  chapter,  that  thei'e  was  a  class  of 
people  who  said  "not  a  Confederacy."  The  Prophet  was  sent  out  and 
instructed  to  say  not  as  they  did,  "  not  a  Confederacy,"  but  a  Confed- 
eracy to  all  them  who  want  a  Confederacy;  and  he  was  told  to  not  fear 
their  fear,  nor  be  afraid.  Thus  you  will  see  that  this  Southern  Confed- 
eracy is  a  Bible  Confederacy.  A  couple  of  verses  preceding  these,  read 
as  follows  :  "Associate  yourselves,  O  ye  people,  and  ye  shall  be  broken 
in  pieces;  and  give  ear  all  ye  of  far  countries,  gird  yourselves,  and 
ye  shall  be  broken  in  pieces.  Take  counsel  together,  and  it  shall  come 
to  nought;  speak  the  word  and  it  shall  not  stand,  for  God  is  with 
us."  You  will  see  by  this  that  all  the  world,  or  far  countries  are  to  be 
broken  to  pieces,  and  this  Confederacy  has  to  do  it,  but  not  till  God  is 
with  us. 

Again.  The  17th  and  18th  verses.  -'And  I  will  wait  upon  the  Lord, 
that  hideth  his  face  from  the  house  of  Jacob,  and  I  will  look  for  him. 
Behold,  I  and  the  children  whom  the  Lord  hath  given  me,  ai-e  for  signs 
and  wonders  in  Israel  from  the  Lord  of  hosts,  which  dwelleth  in  Mount 
Zion."  You  will  see  here  that  Jacob  and  his  children  shall  be  for  signs 
and  wonders  in  Israel  from  the  Lord  of  hosts,  soon  after  this  Confeder- 
acy. When  you  have  read  this  chapter,  yoti  will  see  that  they  are  signs 
of  the  coming  of  Jacob  in  Jesus,  and  you  will  wonder  that  such  is  the 
fact,  and  that  your  wise  men  have  not  seen  it  before.  Jacob's  children 
have  all  been  represented  in  a  district  in  the  land  of  Canaan.  Again 
represented  in  Pagan  E.ome,  and  again  in  Papal  Eome,  in  the  image,  and 
still  again  in  the  colonies,  the  toes  of  the- image.  And  once  more  repre- 
sented by  the  thirteen  Apostles.  Most  certainly,"this  must  be  wonderful 
to  you.  Mark,  all  this  takes  place  just  after  the  Confederacy,  as  in  the 
chapter. 

Again,  In  the  very  verse  succeeding  these,  the  wizards  having  familiar 
spirits  are  mentioned,  and  the  people  urged  to  seek  their  God,  rather  than 
wizards.  Your  humble  servant  has  been  trying  for  several  years  to  got 
this  doctrine  before  the  people,  but  for  the  want  of  means  he  has  not 
succeeded.  In  the  meantime  three  wizards  have  been  here — Jacobs,  An- 
derson, and  the  prince  of  wizards— and  thousands  of  people  pay  their 
dollars  to  go  and  see  the  wizards,  instead  of  seeking  their  God,  in  the 
way  of  aiding  to  publish  his  doctrine.     And  thus  all  these  things  come 


85 

in  precisely  as  the  plan  has  been  laid.  In  the  very  next  chapter  and  Gth 
verse,  is  the  coming  of  God,  in  the  following  words  :  "  For  unto  us  a 
child  is  born,  unto  us  a  son  is  given,  and  the  government  sliall  be  upon 
his  shouldei',  and  his  name  shall  be  called,  Wonderful,  Counsellor,  The 
mighty  God,  The  evei'lastiug  Father,  The  Prince  of  Peace."  This  is  the 
very  God  who  is  coming  to  take  the  Confederacy,  when  all  will  bo  broken 
to  pieces.  He  says  in  the  verse  preceding  this,  that  every  battle  of  the 
warrior  is  with  confused  noise,  and  garments  rolled  in  blood,  but  this 
shall  be  with  burning  and  fuel  of  fire.  This  implies  what  I  have  already 
st-ated,  viz :  The  destruction  of  almost  every  city  on  earth  by  fire,  in 
connection  with  battles.  I  will  here  close  on  this  prophecy,  as  if  I  get 
the  whole  work  published,  this  prophecy,  with  others,  will  be  fully  ex- 
plained. 

Kow,  as  Jesus  was  born  whilst  the  spirit  stood  in  Judah  in  Pagan 
Eome,  the  devil,  and  thus  the  New  Testament  came  out  of  the  Jewish 
Scriptures,  1  will  connect  Peter  with  this  image.  This  doctrine  proves 
that  Jacob  descended  from  God  in  Isaac,  he  stood  in  the  place  of  the  first 
Adam,  whom  God  made  with  hand.  Abraham,  Isaac  and  Jacob,  repre- 
sent the  spirit. of  God  in  three,  one  in  three  ;  hence  God  in  Jesus,  will  rep- 
resent those  three.  This  Jacob  was  regenerated  by  God  in  the  Angel 
Gabriel,  God  standing  in  the  angel,  as  he  had  stood  in  Isaac,  when  Jacob 
was  begotten.  This  angel  overshadowed  the  Virgin  Mary  just  like  Isaac 
had  overshadowed  Eebecca  and  begat  Jacob.  In  this  way  God  begat 
Jesus,  his  only  begotten  son.  God,  mark,  is  a  spirit,  and  the  Angel  Ga- 
briel was  in  an  immortal  body  composed  of  the  Holy  Ghost,  which  is  the 
spirit  of  God,  and  in  this  way  Jesus  got  an  immortal  body,  and  was 
God's  first  begotten  son.  Isaac's  body  being  mortal,  made  Jacob  God's 
first  born  son,  and  not  first  begotten  son.  This  makes  the  immaculate 
conception  of  Jesus  much  plainer.  If  there  was  any  immaculacy  about 
it,  then  there  has  been  moi-e  or  less  about  the  conception  of  all  children. 
The  Angels  Gabriel  and  Michael  will  be  fully  explained  in  the  chapter  on 
the  Eevelation. 

Paul  calls  this  Jesus  the  Second  Adam,  the  Lord  from,  heaven,  imply- 
ing that  he  had  been  the  first  Adam.  So  when  first  Adam,  he  had  a 
son  born  unto  him,  whom  the  Lord  cursed,  and  thus  made  him  devil.  In 
the  spirit  of  the  devil,  were  all  Jacob's  children  in  Pagan  Eome  when 
Jesus  was  born,  and  crucified.  This  Jesus  chooses  twelve  Apostles,  of 
whom  one  turns  traitor,  and  one  was  elected  in  his  place,  which  makes 
thirteen,  the  same  number  of  his  children  -when  Jacob.  One  of  these 
must  represent  Eeuben,  Jacob's  first-born  son,  who  defiled  his  father's 
bed,  in  lying  with  his  father's  concubine,  Bilhah,  Eachel's  maid.  Here 
keep  in  mind  that  Eachel  was  a  type  of  the  spiritual  kingdom,  and  her 
maid  partook  of  the  spirit.  Gen.  35 :  22.  Peter  appears  to  have  been 
chosen  for  this  purpose,  as  he  had  Peter  prefixed  to  his  original  name; 
he  also  was  the  first  Apostle  chosen.  Matt.  10 :  2.  This,  then,  settles 
the  matter  that  he  was  chosen  to  represent  Eeuben.  Peter  also  denied 
his  Master  thrice,  which  represents  the  Trinit^^. 

We  will  now  notice  some  conversation  between  Jesus  and  Peter.  Matt. 
15th  to  19th.  "  Jesus  said  unto  his  xipostles,  But  whom  say  ye  that  I 
am  ?  And  Simon  Peter  answered  and  said,  Thou  art  the  Christ,  the  Son 
of  the  living  God.  And  Jesus  answered  and  said  unto  him.  Blessed  art 
thou,  Simon  Bar-jonah,  for  flesh  and  blood  hath  not  revealed  it  unto  thee, 
but  my  Father  which  is  in  heaven.  And  I  say  also  unto  thee,  that  thou 
art  Peter,  and  upon  this  rock  I  will  build  my  Church,  and  the  gates  of 
hell  shall  not  prevail  against  it.     And  I  will  give  unto  thee  the  keys  of 


S6 

the  kingdom  of  heaven,  and  whatsoever  thou  shalt  bind  on  eai'th  shall 
be  bound  in  heaven,  an^  whatsoever  thou  shalt  loose  on  earth  shall  be 
loosed  in  heaven."  You  will  see  in  the  reading  of  this  closely,  that 
Jesus  was  to  build  his  Church  upon  his  Fathei',  who  was  not  flesh  and 
blood,  and  who  had  revealed  to  Peter  that  Jesus  was  the  Christ,  the  Son 
of  the  living  God.  By  reading  it  and  leaving  out  the  words,  "  And  1 
say  unto  thee,  that  thou  art  Peter,"  you  will  see  that  these  words 
were  put  there  as  a  peculiar  type,  all  of  which  will  be  fully  explained 
before  I  close. 

History  informs  us  that  Peter  and  Paul  were  crucified  in  Eome,  and 
that  Peter  was  crucified  head  down,  which  implies  that  the  feet  died  first. 
That  is  just  the  way  the  image  goes  out  of  existence.  Now,  here  keep 
in  mind  that  the  image  had  its  origin  with  Nebuchadnezzar,  the  golden 
head,  who  stood  in  the  place  of  the  first  Adam,  as  Lord  of  creation,  or 
all  the  then  known  world.  And  when  Nebuchadnezzar  became  a  beast 
he  stood  in  the  spirit  of  Cain,  Adam's  first  born  son.  Pagan  Eome  in 
this  spirit,  when  Peter  was  crucified,  and  of  course  crucified  Peter  in 
conformity  with  the  breaking  to  pieces  the  image.  So,  at  the  time  the 
spirit  was  transferred  from  Pagan  to  Papal  Eome,  the  spirit  of  Peter 
stands  in  the  Pope,  in  the  beast  who  is  the  eighth,  but  of  the  seven. 
And  thus  Peter  and  Eeuben  stand  together  in  Popery,  Father  in  son. 
Mark  now,  it  was  the  same  personage  that  begat  both  of  these  men. 
Jacob  begat  Eeuben  natural,  and  when  Jesus  begat  Peter  spiritual,  by  a 
call  as  an  Apostle. 

We  now  pass  on  up  to  the  feet  of  the  image  after  king  James  the  First 
came  to  the  throne  in  the  feet.  Then  there  was  a  class  of  people  in 
Holland  called  Puritans.  They  were  natives  of  England,  but  had  left 
England  because  they  thought  themselves  too  pure  to  live  there,  hence 
they  had  emigrated  to  Holland.  They  obtained  a  Charter  from  King 
James,  and  then  emigrated  to  the  new  world  and  settled  Massachusetts. 
Some  time  after  this  they  banished  Anne  Hutchison  andEogcr  Williams 
from  their  Colony,  and  soon  after  hung  many  witches,  (Spiritualists 
may  be  thankful  they  did  not  live  in  that  age  of  purity,)  and  also  Qua- 
kers. This  proves  the  same  spirit  which  these  people  condemned  in 
England,  followed  them  to  the  new  world.  And  it  will  also  be  an  easy 
matter  to  convince  anj^body  that  this  spirit  was  the  spirit  of  the  devil, 
as  none  but  devils  would  hang  Quakers,  or  banish  women.  And  to  prove 
to  you  that  this  was  the  spirit  of  Peter  and  Eeuben.  God  made  them 
land  on  the  rock  of  Plymouth,  the  rock  of  Peter,  and  made  them  settle 
the  first  Colony  in  the  new  world,  which  was  settled  in  the  spirit  of  Eeu- 
ben, Jacob's  first  son.  Now,  these  are  facts  that  cannot  be  got  round. 
I  will  now  show  you  how  that  was  brought  about. 

History  informs  us  that  these  people  emigrated  to  Holland  before  the 
union  of  Scotland  with  England  by  a  mai-riage.  This  union  by  marriage 
brought  the  clay  in  the  feet  of  the  image,  as  shown  above.  The  Puri- 
tans having  left  England  before  this  took  place,  took  no  spirit  with  thera, 
but  of  the  metal  in  the  image,  which  was  the  spirit  of  the  devil.  You 
can  here  see  how  the  spirit  of  the  devil  operates  upon  mankind.  It 
makes  them  believe  they  are  more  pure  than  any  others,  hence,  when- 
ever 3-ou  see  men  or  women  professing  to  be  more  pure  than  any  others, 
set  it_  down  for  a  truth  that  the  devil  is  bigger  in  than  out.  This  God 
has  given  to  you  for  a  sign.  This  also  comports  with  the  teachings  of 
Jesus. 

Before  I  proceed  further  I  will  notice  another  item,  as  evidence  of  the 
clay  in  the  feet  of  the  image,  viz :    England  had  discovered  the  east 


37 

coast  of  the  new  world,  in  1496,  more  than  one  hundred  years  before 
king  James  came  to  the  throne.  Two  small  Colonies  had  attempted  to 
settle  on  it,  but  both  were  lost.  Noav,  why  was  this  so  ?  Because,  God 
was  overruling  all  things,  the  time  which  elapsed  hetAveen  the  falling  to 
pieces  of  Pagan  Eome,  and  the  establishing  of  Papal  Eome,  had  to  be 
represented  in  the  discovery  and  settling  the  new  world,  hence  no  settle- 
ments could  be  made  to  remain,  until  the  clay  was  in  the  feet  of  the 
image,  and  it  had  to  be  made  more  than  a  hundred  years  before.  God's 
plan  having  been  laid  thousands  of  years  ago,  so  as  to  close  out  old 
things  b}'  the  year  66,  or  at  least  commence  it  on  the  old  world,  hence 
everything  had  to  be  done  like  clock  Avork. 

We  now  come  up  to  the  establishment  of  the  Union,  under  the  Con- 
stitution, when  Peter  takes  his  place  as  an  apostle  of  Jesus,  in  Wash- 
ington. Washington,  being  the  first  President,  stands  in  the  spirit  of 
Peter,  the  first  apostle.  Washington  was  born  and  buried  in  Virginia. 
Now  mark,  this  leaves  Peter  the  devil  in  Massachusetts.  Now,  Peter  is 
placed  in  a  position  to  use  the  key  to  bind  on  earth  and  in  Heaven,  and 
to  loose  on  earth  and  in  Heaven.  This  Union,  being  the  kingdom  of 
Heaven  on  earth,  both  are  together,  and  the  spirit  of  Peter  as  an  apostle 
of  Jesus,  is  to  have  the  rule  of  the  kingdom  during  the  time  the  eleven 
apostles  are  being  represented  in  the  Presidency,  and  Avhoever  he  binds 
on  earth  will  be  bound  in  Heaven,  and  who  loosed  on  earth  will  be  loosed 
in  Heaven.     This  is  the  meaning  of  the  keys. 

Again,  the  spirit  of  Peter,  the  apostle,  leaves  Heaven  in  the  death  of 
Henry  Clay.  This  represents  Jesus  leaving  earth.  Pierce  comes  in  the 
representative  of  Judas,  and  Buchanan  the  representative  of  Matthias. 
This  ends  the  reign  of  the  apostles  of  Jesus,  when  Abraham  takes  the 
place  of  Buchanan,  the  representative  of  Peter,  the  beast.  Mark,  Abra- 
ham stands  in  the  spirit  of  Belshazzar,  and  in  the  spirit  of  Louis  Napo- 
leon. Peter  also  stands  in  the  Trinity,  as  beast  in  Pierce,  Buchanan  and 
Abraham. 

Again,  after  the  ascension  of  Jesus,  the  disciples  chose  seven  men  to 
break  bread  to  the  Grecian  widows.  These  seven  men  were  the  typea 
of  the  seven  churches  of  Asia,  which  the  Revelator  says  were  the  seven 
golden  candlesticks,  which  are  now  represented  in  the  Southern 
Confederacy,  and  Davis  holding  the  seven  stars  in  his  right  hand,  in  the 
shadow  of  Jesus.  When  Jesus  takes  his  place  in  the  seven  spirits  of 
God,  which  was  the  typ-fe  of  the  seven  men  chosen,  then  Jesus  will  break 
bread  to  the  Grecian  Avidows.  Here  you  must  keep  in  mind  that  Jacob, 
in  the  devil,  in  Pagan  Eome,  conquered  Esau  in  the  Greeks,  Jesus  bemg 
born  Avhen  Pagan  Eome  stood  in  Judah,  received  the  spirit  of  Esau  by 
conquest.  The  spirit  of  Pagan  Eome  being  transferred  to  Papal  Eome, 
stands  now  where  it  ought  not,  in  Abraham  as  Esau,  in  Eome  by  con- 
quest. Hence,  Abraham  has  the  Greek  fire.  So,  Avhen  Jesus  comes  he 
must  have  the  birth-right  of  Esau,  Avhich  he  bought  for  a  mess  of  pot- 
tage, Avhen  Jacob.  This  birth-right  will  be  the  sceptre  of  the  old  Union, 
which  Avill  bring  about  thousands  of  Grecian  widoAvs. 

I  must  notice  one  thing  more  before  I  proceed  farther,  viz  :  The  clay 
came  into  the  feet  of  the  image  in  England  receiving  God's  king- 
dom, and  God  leaA^es  this  Union  in  a  man  by  the  name  of  Clay.  I  sup- 
pose you  think  this  has  been  chance  work.  Well,  have  it  so,  then.  Now 
if  England  received  God  thus,  then  it  follows  as  a  matter  of  course  that 
the  devil  was  in  possession  of  England  before  receiving  the  clay.  Then 
it  also  folloAYS  as  a  matter  of  course,  that  wHei^God  left  the  Union  in 
Clay,  the  devil  took  his  place  in  Pierce,  Buchanan  and  Abraham,  rupre-

senting  the  Trinity.     Now  we  will  prove  further  that  this  is  the  spirit 
of  Peter's  rock. 

In  Deut.,  32d  chapter,  4th  verse,  we  have  the  following :  He  is  the 
Eock,  his  work  is  perfect,  for  all  his  ways  are  judgments;  a  God  of  truth 
and  without  iniquity,  just  and  right  is  he.  You  will  see  here  that  Moses 
was  speaking  of  the  God  of  Abraham,  Isaac,  and  Jacob,  as  the  just  and 
righteous  God.  15th  verse. — But  Jeshurun  waxed  fat, and  kicked;  thou 
art  waxen  fat;  thou  art  gi*own  thick;  thou  art  covered  with  fatness; 
then  he  forsook  God  which  made,  and  lightly  esteemed  the  Eock  of  his 
salvation.  Of  the  Eock  that  begat  thee  thou  art  unmindful,  and  hast 
forgotten  God  that  formed  thee. — 18th  verse.  In  these  passages  j-ou  will 
see  that  a  certain  person  is  spoken  of  as  having  grown  fat  and  forgotten 
God.  And  in  the  31st  verse,  as  follows  :  For  their  Eock  is  not  our  Eock, 
and  our  enemies  themselves  been  judges.  Here  you  see  that  two  rocks 
are  referred  to.  These  two  rocks  were  the  types  of  God  as  the  Eock  of 
our  salvation,  and  Peter  the  rock  of  our  damnation,  or  condemnation. 
This  is  made  more  plain  by  reading  the  30th  verse.  How  should  one 
chase  a  thousand,  and  two  put  ten  thousand  to  flight,  except  their  Eock 
had  sold  them,  and  the  Lord  had  shut  them  in.  You-  will  see  by  read- 
ing the  whole  chapter  that  it  was  prophecyed  in  Moses,  who  stood  as 
God,  second  person  in  the  Trinity,  and  refers  to  the  very  times  in  which 
we  now  are.  When  God  comes,  one  will  chase  a  thousand  and  two  put 
ten  thousand  to  flight,  because  their  Eock  is  not  our  Eock. 

Again  :  God  is  a  rock,  and  Jesus  is  the  little  stone  cut  out  of  the  moun- 
tain without  hand,  which  is  to  break  the  image  to  pieces,  as  in  Daniel, 
2  :  34th  and  4.5th.  Peter  the  Eock  landed  on  the  rock  of  Plymouth.  The 
rock  of  Plymouth  was  a  type  of  God;  and  Peter  landing  on  it  shows  he 
was  anti-God — in  God's  place — precisely  as  the  tj'pe  set  by  Jesus.  Also, 
Jesus  was  the  Stone  out  of  the  Mountain;  and  it  was  him  that  SBt  this 
tj])e  with  Peter.  Hence  Peter  stands  as  the  rock  Moses  referred  to  when 
he  said  their  Eock  is  not  our  Eock.  This  Eock  now  stands  in  Abraham, 
who  stands  in  God's  place,  as  did  Peter  on  the  rock  of  Plymouth,  and  as 
does  Peter  in  the  Pope  who  has  gTOwn  fat  and  kicked,  and  Peter  in 
Abraham  has  kicked  when  he  ought  not. 

JsTow,  under  the  reign  of  Peter  the  Beast  the  feet  of  the  image  are  com- 
pleted in  Peter's  Eock.  Mark,  Peter  in  Popery  places  the  image  in  the 
spirit  of  Peter  the  Eock.  Hence  we  now  have  the  golden  feet,  the  silver 
feet,  the  brass  or  copper  feet,  and  the  ii^on  feet,  as  an  iron  mountain  has 
recently  been  discovered  in  Washington  Territory.  Hence  the  feet  of 
the  image  are  now  completed  in  the  golden  gods,  silver  gods,  coj^per  or 
brass  gods,  and  iron  gods,  and  now  ready  to  be  broken  to  pieces.  You 
must  now  keep  in  mind  that  him  who  has  more  than  two  feet  runs  his 
race  the  sooner;  the  image  goes  out  feet  foremost;  and  as  the  finishing 
of  the  toes  is  the  finishing  of  the  feet  so  the  mashing  or  breaking  the 
feet  to  pieces  first  is  breaking  the  toes ;  and  as  breaking  the  image  to 
pieces  will  be  accomplished  only  b}^  the  destruction  of  life,  woe  to  the 
feet  business.  I  don't  name  these  things  because  I  find  fimlt  with  any- 
thing being  done.  I  name  them  to  show  you  that  you  are  machines  in 
God's  hand,  and  must  fulfill  his  plan. 

I  will  now  close  Peter  bj^  a  brief  revisal.  Peter  standing  the  same  to 
Jesus  as  Cain  to  the  first  Adam,  and  Jesus  being  born  when  the  spirit 
was  in  Judah  in  Pagan  Eome,  places  Peter  in  the  place  of  Jacob  at  the 
head  of  Papal  Eome.  The  spirit  of  Peter  the  spiritual  adviser  of  the 
Pope,  whilst  the  spirit  tif-Eeuben  is  lawgiver  in  the  Pope,  and  thus  the 
Pope  stands  as  anti-god.     Again,  these  two  spirits  pass  the  ocean  in  the 


89 

Puritans,  and  land  on  the  rock  of  Plymouth.  The  rock  of  Pl^^mouth  being 
typical  of  God,  and  those  spirits  landing  on  it,  implies  they  are  anti-god, 
and  remain  in  Massachusetts  as  anti-god  for  the  time  being.  Peter  as  an 
Apostle  takes  his  place  in  Washington,  whence  the  spirit  remains  until 
the  death  of  Claj^  when  God  leaves  the  Union,  which  represents  Jesua 
leaving  earth.  When  Jesus  left  earth  he  had  eleven  Apostles.  God  left 
the  Union  in  Taylor's  Presidential  term,  who  was  the  eleventh  Presi- 
dent. Pierce  comes  in  as  Judas;  Buchanan  as  Matthias.  Here  mark, 
Matthias  was  elected  before  the  cloven  tongues  descended  upon  the 
Apo.stles.  Buchanan  was  elected  before  the  telegraph  cable  was  laid. 
After  the  descent  of  the  cloven  tongues,  Peter  became  leader,  and  this 
made  the  Disciples  choose  seven  men  as  above.  After  Buchanan,  Abra- 
ham comes  in  as  leader  in  the  spirit  of  Peter.  So  when  he  takes  the 
throne  the  Disciples  have  set  up  the  seven  golden  candlesticks,  with  the 
seven  stars  in  the  right  hand  of  him  in  the  midst,  all  in  the  shadow. 
Now,  you  must  certainly  see  this  as  plain  as  noonday. 

Again,  a  further  evidence  :  Abraham  and  Louis  J^apoleon  are  both  in 
the  same  spirit,  both  after  conquest,  and  both  standing  where  they  ought 
not.  You  must  be  aware  that  ISTapoleon  did  not  start  out  until  Peter  in 
Abraham  led  the  way. 

I  will  now  notice  Peuben.  Reuben  laid  Avith  his  Father's  concubine. 
Gen.  25  :  23.  The  Pope  being  in  that  spirit  has  no  doubt  laid  with  his 
Father's  concubines.  He  being  anti-god  he  must  act  the  part  set  in 
typo  by  Reuben — Jacob's  first  begotten  son;  and  as  God  comes  in  Jesus 
His  first  begotten  son,  he  will  find  the  Pope  lying  with  His  concubines. 

Again  :  Massachusetts  stands  in  the  same  spirit,  and  when  you  take 
into  consideration  the  fact  that  the  maids  given  to  Jacob  by  his  wives, 
for  wives,  Avere  black  women,  then  you  need  hot  be  surprised  at  the 
course  Massachusetts  has  been  pursuing  ever  since  the  birth  of  the 
Union,  in  stealing  the  blacks  from  the  South.  Neither  need  you  be  sur- 
prised at  the  number  of  amalgamated  marriages  in  that  State. 

Again  :  John  Brown  loosed  the  devil  for  a  little  season.  In  the  last 
President's  term  he  came  out  of  Massachusetts  and  passed  into  Vii-ginia 
,where  Washington  the  Apostle  Peter  was  buried,  and  there  commenced 
the  devil's  work,  for  which  he  was  hung,  and  from  that  time  the  spirit 
has  been  loose.  JSTow,  you  can  see  what  spirit  it  Avas  that  has  produced 
this  great  strife.  You  can  also  see  why  it  started  soon  after  God  left. 
It  commenced  in  Pierce's  reign,  in  Kansas,  and  thus  continued  until  the 
hanging  took  ijlace,  Avhen  it  Avas  spread  broadcast  over  the  land,  and 
must  spread  from  here  throughout  the  whole  world.  Again,  you  also 
see  Avhy  Abraham  had  to  come  into  all  the  radical  notions  of  Massachu- 
setts. Abraham  must  come  into  it  to  get  the  spirit  of  Peter  and  Reuben. 
He  Avants  the  South  to  lie  with  him,  but  he  Avill  come  out  missing  this 
time.  You  can  now  see  that  the  spirit  of  this  Avhole  war  has  come  out 
of  Massachusetts. 

This  Avill  also  account  for  Butler's  course  in  New  Orleans,  as  avcII  as 
for  all  other  such  acts,  or  similar  acts  perpetrated  throughout  the  war. 
In  fact,  if  you  Avill  penetrate  the  veil  with  this  light,  you  can  see  hoAV 
this  whole  matter  has  been  hid  in  the  Avoman,  as  Avas  the  Avoman  hid  in 
Adam,  and  now  comes  out  in  a  throne  out  of  the  old  Union  standing  in 
the  women  of  the  South,  whilst  Cain  is  trying  to  kill  Abel,  who  is  the 
representative  of  the  Avomen.  I  don't  name  these  things  because  I  find 
fault  with  them;  no,  but  to  show  you  that  God  is  ruling,  and  not  man. 

The  finishing  link  in  Peter :  Jesus  said  to  Peter  :  "  Get  thee  behind 
me,  Satan,  thou  art  an  offence  unto  me,  for  thou  savorest  not  the  thing 


40 

that  be  of  God,  but  those  that  be  of  men." — Matt.  16,  23.  These  -word.' 
stand  in  connection  with  Peter  the  Eock.  Jesus  ascended  up  to  Heaver 
and  left  Petei"  behind  him,  when  he  became  leader.  Peter  stands  iii 
Popery  as  leader — anti-god.  Peter  the  Apostle  stood  in  Washington. 
God  left  the  kingdom  in  Clay,  and  now  Peter  comes  in  Abraham  as  live 
ghost  for  Satan,  behind  God,  savoring  the  things  that  be  of  men  and  not 
those  that  be  of  God,  and  thus  making  a  complete  letter  to  the  type. 

A  little  more  light  on  the  binding  on  earth  and  in  Heaven,  and  loosing 
on  earth  and  in  Heaven.  The  Pope  stands  in  Peter,  his  kingdom  is 
earth.  That  spirit  stands  iii  Abraham  in  Heaven,  as  the  Union  is  the 
kingdom  of  Heaven.  This  brings  the  same  spirit  in  Heaven  where  it 
does  the  same  work  that  it  doue  in  Popery,  viz — persecute  all  opposed 
to  it. 

Once  more.  "  For  the  Son  of  Man  shall  come  in  the  glory  of  His  Father 
with  His  Angels,  and  then  He  shall  reward  every  man  according  to  hia 
works.  Yerily  I  say  unto  you,  there  be  some  standing  here  which  shall 
not  taste  of  death  till  they  see  the  Son  of  Man  coming  in  His  kingdom." 
27th  and  28th  verse  of  the  same  chapter.  This  ends  the  conversation 
with  Peter  as  the  Eock.  You  will  see  that  all  this  was  connected  in  the 
conversation  with  Peter,  as  is  typical,  and  will  be  fulfilled  when  the  Son 
of  Man  comes,  which  must  be  before  Abraham  leaves  the  Chair  of  State, 
when  that  power  vested  in  him  must  get  behind  Jesus,  as  it  is  not  the 
power  of  God,  but  of  the  devil  or  satan.  This  will  be  its  destruction  and 
the  establishing  of  the  Church  of  Christ  upon  the  Eock  of  Peter  by  con- 
quest, fis  shown  above.  I  will  have  more  to  say  on  this  part  of  the  sub- 
ject in  future  chapters. 

Now,  having  got  through  with  Peter,  I  shall  go  back  to  Daniel  and 
bring  the  whole  matter  up  and  carry  it  out  to  the  end,  showing  the  ful- 
fillment of  the  prophecy  of  Daniel.  After  which  I  will  connect  some 
more  items  not  yet  noticed  in  Daniel. 

Daniel  saw  in  his  night  vision,  the  same  in  which  he  saw  the  four 
beasts,  one  like  unto  the  son  of  man,  come  in  the  clouds  of  Heaven. 
This  person  was  brought  before  the  ancient  of  days,  and  there  was  a 
great  dominion  given  him,  which  should  never  be  destroyed — 7,  13th 
and  14th  verses.  The  same  spirit  that  saw  this  in  Daniel  stood  in  Jesus 
as  the  son  of  man.  He,  in  Matt.  24—30,  Mark  13—26,  and  Luke  21—28 
tells  the  people  that  he  would  again  come  in  the  clouds  of  Heaven,  or 
that  he  would  again  come,  and  when  he  did  he  would  come  in  the  clouds 
of  heaven.  In  those  chapters  He  gives  an  account  of  his  coming,  saying 
that  great  tribulations  should  be  suffered  ay  the  people,  and  that  that 
day  should  come  as  a  snare  upon  the  whole  earth — Luke  21 — 35.  The 
Revelator,  St.  John,  speaks  of  this  same  coming  in  the  clouds  of  Heaven, 
just  in  advance  of  the  seven  golden  candlesticks,  in  these  words :  "  Be- 
hold, he  Cometh  with  clouds,  and  ever}^  eye  shall  see  him,  and  they  also 
which  pierced  Him,  and  all  kindreds  of  the  earth  shall  wail  because  of 
Him."  This  wailing  denotes  great  tribulation.  And  Him  being  seen 
b}^  those  who  pierced  Him,  implies  that  the  spirits  in  the  spirit  world 
will  also  see  this  manifestation,  Eev.  1 — 7. 

Now  keep  in  mind  that  the  thirteen  Presidents  have  been  represented, 
and  the  throne  in  God's  place  in  Abraham,  and  the  seven  men  represent- 
ed who  broke  bread  for  the  Grecian  widows,  which  stand  in  seven  States 
as  the  golden  candlesticks.  Also,  keep  in  mind  that  Jesus  conferred  him- 
self upon  Saul  of  Tarsus,  soon  after  the  seven  men  had  been  chosen,  as 
in  Acts,  9th  ch.'  Consequently  the  cloud  must  bi-ing  Jesus  as  the  letter 
to   the   type  of  conferring  himself  upon  Saul,  whilst  Abraham  occupies 


41 

the  throne,  and  whilst  these  seven  States  are  under  the  fla^  on  which 
the  seven  stars  are.  You  will  see  by  this  that  there  is  no  possibility  of 
these  things  passing  away  before  the  cloud  comes  with  the  Son  of  Man. 
One  thing  is,  however,  true,  viz:  As  the  South  now  stand  in  the  spirit 
of  the  apostles  of  Jesus,  and  as  they  all  forsook  Him  when  He  was 
crucified,  so  the  manifestation  of  this  must  be  made  in  forsaking  Davis. 
But  if  they  all  forsake  him  it  don't  destroy  the  spirit  of  the  throne, 
as  it  stands  in  the  women.  None  followed  Jesus  but  Peter,  and  he  fol- 
lowed Him  to  the  Judgment  bar,  when  he  denied  Him  thrice.  So, 
Peter  in  Abraham,  must  follow  Davis  to  the  Judgment  bar  of  Grod,  when 
he  will  deny  him  thrice.  Again,  this  must  bring  Jesus  before  Abraham 
leaves  the  throne.  The  cloud  will  descend  some  place  on  the  Pacific 
coast,  and  I  think,  near  this  city,  when  will  be  such  a  time  as  has  never 
been  Avitnessed  on  earth.  From  here  He  will  pass  to  the  East  by 
steamship,  in  the  wake  of  the  Japan  Embassy,  and  take  the  throne 
of  the  seven  candlesticks.  This  will  represent  the  personage  seen  by 
Daniel  in  his  third  vision — Daniel  10th,  5 — 6.  Keep  in  mind  this  per- 
sonage was  seen  by  Daniel,  between  the  two  Bonapartes.  It  stands 
between  the  great  king  understanding  dark  sentences,  8,  23,  and  the  vile 
man,  11,  21.  The  former  is  also  mentioned  the  second  time,  as  above 
shown,  in  19th  verse.  So  this  personage  seen  by  Daniel,  must  stand  on 
earth  in  the  reign  of  this  vile,  Louis  Napoleon. 

Again  :  then  will  be  measured  out  to  Abraham  the  same  measure 
he  has  has  been  meting  out  to  Davis,  shaken  down,  heaped  up  and 
run  over.  And  he  that  leadeth  into  captivity,  must  be  led  into  cap- 
tivity, and  he  that  killeth  with  the  sword,  must  be  killed  with  the 
sword — Eev.  13:  10  This,  you  see,  will  entirel}'  destroy  the  North. 
Jesus  will  get  Esau's  birthright  by  conquest,  conquer  the  North,  and 
extend  the  garden  of  the  Lord  over  the  whole  of  it.  Again  :  Jesus 
will  take  the  Southern  Confederacy,  as  the  Lion  of  the  Tribe  of  Judah, 
in  the  spirit  of  Daniel  in  the  Lion's  den,  and  the  Hebrew  children  in 
the  fiery  furnace,  when  the  seven  spirits  of  God  set  in  type  by  the 
seven  extra  heats  of  the  furnace,  will  sweep  everything  from  before 
it,  as  did  the  fire  that  came  out  of  the  furnace  and  slew  the  men  who 
cast  the  children  in.  Then  those  of  Abraham's  forces  in  the  lion's 
den  will  be  suddenly  destroyed,  as  were  the  bones  of  those  broken, 
who  were  cast  into  the  den,  ere  they  came  to  the  ground.  This  will 
settle  the  business  in  this  Union,  by  a  lasting  peace. 

Whilst  this  is  going  on  in  the  new  world,  Louis  Napoleon  will  be  at 
his  work,  and  before  the  close  of  66,  w^ill  have  conquered  England,  and 
set  up  the  abomination  that  maketh  desolate,  as  in  Daniel,  11,  31,  and 
in  8  :  13.  This  will  drive  her  Majesty,  Queen  Victoria,  to  this  union  of 
Jesus,  when  she  will  unite  her  kingdom  with  his  by  a  marriage.  This 
will  represent  the  second  fleeing  of  woman,  in  Eev.  12,  11,  where  she  will 
remain  for  time,  times  and  half  time,  which,  at  the  lowest  computation, 
will  be  three  years  and  a  half.  She  is  to  flee  as  with  the  two  wings  of 
a  great  eagle.  These  two  wings  will  be  represented  by  the  two  side 
wheels  of  the  steamship  Great  Eastern.  This  ship  was  built  to  repre- 
sent Noah's  Ark,  and  is  the  only  ship  ever  built  as  large  as  the  ark. 
As  Noah's  ark  saved  God's  natural  man,  and  brought  him  down  on  this 
side  of  the  flood,  from  whom  descended  his  natui-al  kingdom,  so  must 
this  great  ship  save  God's  natural  kingdom,  and  bring  it  down  on  this 
side  of  the  Ocean,  from  whom  must  descend  God's  Spiritual  kingdom. 

Again  :    This  will  give  the  man-child  the  iron  rod  to  rule  the  nations 
with,  as  in  Eev.  12:  5,  12  and  15;  also  2:  27.     This  iron  rod  will  beking- 
4 


42 

dom  of  England,  the  iron  kingdom  in  the  image,  which  will  be  the  iron 
rod  in  the  hand  of  Jesus.  Then  he  Avill  go  forth  and  redeem  the  mother. 
This  will  cause  two  great  struggles,  as  in  Rev.  14:  11  and  23.  The  first 
will  be  on  the  ocean,  when  Josepl^'s  pit  will  have  water  in.  In  this 
Louis  JSTapoleon  will  be  defeated,  when  he  will  flee  from  England,  setting 
her  on  fire  first,  as  the  tj'pe  set  by  the  old  Czar,  in  Moscow.  This  will 
verify  Daniel,  in  7,  11,  where  he  says  the  fourth  beast  was  destroyed 
and  given  to  the  burning  flames.  The  second  struggle  will  take  place 
outside  of  England,  on  the  field  of  Waterloo,  where  the  tree  was  cut 
down.  This  battle  will  dig  the  stump  of  it  up  and  plant  in  its  place  the 
tree  of  life.  Then  the  little  stone  will  have  broken  the  toes  and  feet  of 
the  image  to  pieces. 

After  this  Louis  isTapoleon  will  retreat  to  the  valley  of  Jehosaphat, 
where  the  great  battle  of  Armageddon  will  be  fought.  Grod  calls  it  the 
valley  of  decision.  There  will  be  decided  the  fate  of  all  nations  of 
earth.  This  battle  will  be  fought  between  God  and  the  Devil,  and  will 
crumble  to  dust  all  thrones  on  earth,  and  upon  their  ruins  will  arise  the 
throne  of  Almighty  God,  before  whom  every  knee  must  bow,  and  every 
tongue  confess  that  Christ  is  Lord,  to  the  glory  of  God  the  Father.  In 
this  battle  Louis  Napoleon  will  have  ten  powers  to  help  him,  which  will 
be  the  ten  horns  of  the  great  dragon,  as  in  Rev.  17:  12.  They  have  re- 
ceived no  power  as  kings  yet  with  the  beast,  only  been  with  him  an 
hour.  Hence  the  time  has  not  yet  arrived  for  these  kings  to  have  their 
power  with  the  beast,  neither  will  it,  until  after  England  is  conquered. 
By  reading  from  the  twelfth  verse  to  the  end  of  the  chapter,  you  can  see 
the  result.  This  will  complete  the  supper  of  the  great  God,  as  above 
stated. 

Again :  this  great  battle  will  beat  the  sword  unto  the  plough-share, 
and  the  spear  into  the  pruning-hook,  and  conquer  Rome,  Spain  and 
France,  and  unite  them  to  the  kingdom  of  Jesus;  just  as  Daniel  says  in 
regard  to  the  other  three  beasts.  He  sa3's  their  dominion  shall  be  taken 
away,  but  their  lives  spared  for  a  season  and  a  time.  This  you  see  then, « 
completely  verifies  Daniel's  vision  of  the  four  beasts  that  represent  the 
image.  It  also  breaks  the  image  to  pieces,  when  there  will  be  no  place 
found  for  it  as  kingdoms.  It  also  verifies  that  of  Jesus  to  Peter,  saying  : 
"  On  this  rock  1  will  build  my  Church,  and  the  gates  of  Hell  shall  not 
prevail  against  it."  JNlark,  now,  Jesus'  Church  will  be  the  kingdom  God 
sets  up  in  the  days  of  these  kings,  which  he  sets  up  on  the  rock,  Peter 
by  conquest.  Then  He  will  start  the  regeneration,  when  immortal  chil- 
di'en  will  be  born,  instead  of  mortal  ones,  and  as  the  grave  is  Scripture 
hell,  the  gates  of  hell  cannot  prevail  against  it.  None  of  these  children 
will  ever  be  bui'ied.  The  immortal  kingdom,  or  church,  call  it  which 
you  please,  is  in  the  seed  of  Jesus,  which  is  the  seed  of  God,  hence  Jesus 
builds  his  church  on  the  rock  of  God,  with  the  rock,  Peter,  for  a  eon- 
quest.     This  is  the  sum  and  substance  of  the  whole  of  that  matter. 

Again  :  this  great  crisis  about  the  close  of  71,  when  the  Queen's  mis- 
sion of  about  three  and  a  half,  or  four  and  a  half  years,  will  be  out  in  the 
new  world  where  she  fled  to  when  the  throne  will  be  moved  to  England, 
when  Jesus  will  receive  his  father  David's  throne,  when  him  and  his 
wife  will  occupy  it  jointly,  as  did  Mary  and  William.  Then  will  be  rep- 
resented the  parable  of  the  sheep  and  goats.  You  will  see  at  a  glance, 
the  beauty  of  the  parable.  It  says  all  the  nations  shall  be  gathered 
before  Him.  Here  all  nations  will  be  before  Him,  represented  by  their 
kings,  when  He  will  separate  one  nation  from  another,  as  a  shepherd 
divideth  hia  sheep  from  the  goats.     Those  nations  that  represent  the 


43 

sheep  He  will  place  upon  His  right  hand,  admit  into  His  kingdom. 
Those  representing  the  goats  place  on  the  left  hand,  destroy  them  from 
off  the  earth.  This  will  bring  the  whole  world  into  God's  kingdom, 
when  the  stone  will  have  become  a  great  mountain,  filling  the  whole 
earth,  as  in  Daniel,  2:  85.  And  which  also  will  fulfil  Daniel,  7:  14,  and 
27,  when  the  greatness  of  the  kingdom  under  the  whole  Heaven  will  be 
given  to  the  people  of  the  saints  of  the  Most  High,  and  all  shall  sei-ve 
and  obey  him. 

Again.  Then  the  world  will  be  divided  into  twenty-four  parts,  each 
part  represented  by  a  Minister  residing  at  the  capital,  verifying,  the 
words  of  Jesus  to  his  Apostles,  "  Whoever  will  be  greatest  among  you 
let  him  be  j-our. Minister.  And  whoever  will  be  chiefest,  let  him  be  your 
servant.  Matt.  20:  26,  27.  Jesus  said,  "I  come  not  to  bo  served,  but  to 
serve.  Luke  22:  27;  John  13  :  13,  14.  Jesu.s  the  King,  the  servant  of 
the  vi'hole  world.  The  Ministers  the  Apostles,  or  Elders  around  the 
throne  in  heaven.  Mark,  heaven  Avill  be  on  earth  then,  and  the  Elders 
represented  b}'  the  Ministers,  who  will  receive  the  laws  from  Jesus  on 
the  throne,  as  Moses  received  them  from  God  in  the  cloud.  These  Min- 
isters will  send  the  dispatches  to  their  different  departments.  These  de- 
partments will  be  governed  by  Governors,  as  set  in  type  in  England.  All 
difficulty  between  the  people  will  be  settled  by  arbitration.  All  Judges, 
Juries  and  Courts,  will  be  dispensed  with.  Such  is  a  rough  outline  of  the 
summing  up  of  old  things,  and  starting  the  new  things  in  their  places. 

I  will  now  notice  some  items  connected  with  the  summing  up  of  mat- 
ters. 1st.  The  reader  will  see  that  it  is  impossible  for  tho.se  ten  horns  of 
the  dragon  to  have  appeared  yet.  In  order  to  make  this  more  plain,  I 
must  cite  you  to  one  fact,  viz  :  When  the  Revelator  was  in  heaven,  the 
Lord  made  all  there  seen  by  him  pass  befoi-e  him,  when  he  wrote  the 
same.  Afterward,  God  made  men,  as  tools  in  his  hand,  build  up  all 
things  as  passed  before  the  Eevelator,  commencing  with  the  throne  of 
the  "little  horn.  Now,  we  not  having  arrived  at  that  point  on  earth,  in 
which  the  angel  said  unto  John,  "  Come  here,  I  will  show  unto  thee  the 
judgment  of  the  great  whore  that  sitteth  upon  many  waters.  Eev.  17  :  1. 
You  will  see  that  the  seven  vials  of  God's  wrath  had  just  been  poured 
out,  as  in  the  16tji  chapter.  Hence  the  angel  had  called  John  to  see  the 
effect  that  the  pouring  out  of  these  vials  would  have  on  the  great  whore. 
In  the  16th  chapter  is  the  great  battle  of  Armageddon,  and  as  that  can- 
not be  fought  until  after  England  is  conquered  and  redeemed,  so  the  ten 
horns  cannot  be  represented  by  ten  kingdoms,  hence  the  Eevelator  said 
they  had  only  been  one  hour  with  the  beast.  This  will  be  literally  veri- 
fied about  the  year  68,  when  great  preparation  will  be  made  to  fight  the 
great  battle  of  Armageddon,  when  they  must  give  their  power  to  the 
beast  until  the  word  of  God  is  fulfilled.  17  :  17.  This  will  close  up  with 
the  year  '71. 

Again:  These  ten  kingdoms  form  no  part  of  the  seven  heads  of  the 
dragon,  but  are  to  help  Louis  Napoleon  make  the  seventh  head,  he 
being  the  acting  spirit  for  the  Pope,  the  beast.  It  being  the  serpent's 
head  that  has  got  to  be  made,  it  will  require  much  more  powor,  than  the 
making  of  either  of  the  other  heads  required.  These  ten  kings  will  be 
ten  separate  kingdoms,  consequent!}''  ten  beasts,  not  one  beast  with  ten 
horns,  but  ten  beasts  with  each  a  horn. 

Again.  The  beast  is  the  eighth,  but  of  the  seventh.  You  will  see 
here  that  it  takes  eight  heads  to  make  a  best  with  seven  heads.  Had 
the  beast,  who  is' the  eighth,  no  head,  it  would  be  a  carcass  with  seven 
heads.    A  beast  must  have  a  head ;  without  a  head  there  could  be  no 


44 

such  thing  as  beast,  or  an}'  other  living  thing.  The  beast  stands  the 
same  in  the  midst  of  his  seven  heads,  as  anti-god,  that  Jesus  does  in  the 
midst  of  the  seven  spirits  of  God,  set  in  type  by  the  seven  golden  candle- 
sticks, and  Jesus  in  the  midst.  So,,  when  Jesus  comes  in  the  seven  spirits 
of  God,  ho  will  take  the  place  of  the  beast  in  the  midst  of  his  seven 
beads,  as  anti-God.  This  will  destroy  the  beast  and  all  that  pertains  to 
him. 

We  will  now  notice  Daniel's  beast  with  ten  horns,  and  the  little  horn, 
which,  as  proven  above,  is  England.  You  will  see  that  had  England  not 
united  those  ten  horns  into  the  little  horn,  there  would  still  be  ten  king- 
doms there,  and  consequentl}'^  ten  beasts,  with  each  a  horn.  Therefore, 
in  order  to  constitute  a  beast  wi  h  ten  horns,  it  requires  the  union  of  ten 
beasts  into  one.  This  is  precisely  the  way  England  stands.  She  stands 
in  the  spirit  of  those  ten  horns,  and  is  the  beast  with  ten  horns.  Pagan 
Rome  fell  into  ten  kingdoms  to  represent  ten  of  Jacob's  children  in  the 
devil.  These  were  agaiu  united  in  the  spirit  in  Papal  Eome,  in  the  feet 
of  the  image,  in  the  devil.  This  being  a  part  of  the  fruits  of  God's 
kingdom,  and  the  other  part  is  the  birth  of  this  Union,  as  a  kingdom  for 
Jesus. 

We  will  now  apply  some  of  the  payings  of  this  little  horn.  In  Daniel's 
night  vision,  he  beheld  until  thrones  were  cast  down,  and  the  Ancient  of 
days  did  sit.  I  stated  above  that  these  thrones  were  the  States  of  ^his 
Union.  Mark,  thrones  being  cast  down,  implies  they  did  exist.  Dan.  7  : 
9.  In  the  11th  verse,  the  little  horn  spake  great  words,  for  which  the 
beast  was  destroyed,  and  given  to  the  burning  flames.  This  took  place 
as  a  type  when  these  thrones  were  established.  The  war  of  indejiend- 
ence  was  the  time  these  words  referred  to,  when  the  spirit  of  the  beast 
was  On  the  throne  of  England  in  George  the  Third,  when  our  fathers  re- 
belled. 

Again,  Now  that  same  spirit  is  on  the  throne  of  the  Union,  and  the 
South  rebelled.  The  same  great  words  are  spoken  again,  7  :  24,  25,  26; 
but  this  time  the  judgment  shall  sit,  and  his  dominion  taken,  and  dc- 
,  stroyed  unto  the  end.  This  will  be  done  by  the  jjersonage  coming  in  the 
cloud,  as  seen  in  the  night  vision,  which  will  cast  down  these  thrones,  as 
in  7:  9.  This  will  destroy  the  sceptre  of  the  Union,  as  in  the  26th  verse. 
Then  England  will  be  given  to  the  burning  flames,  and  the  dominion  of 
the  other  three  beasts  taken  awa}^,  as  in  11th  and  12th  verses,  one  after 
the  other,  just  as  stated  above. 

Again.  In  the  second  vision,  Daniel  also  saw  some  of  the  wonderful 
work  of  this  little  horn.  Dan.  9.  This  stands  in  connection  with  Daniel 
overhearing  the  saints  discussing  the  question  of  how  long  it  should  be 
until  the  transgression  of  desolation,  to  give  both  the  sanctuary  and  the 
host  to  be  trodden  underfoot,  which,  as  proven  above,  is  the  "abomina- 
tion of  desolation"  mentioned  in  11:  ol,  which  Louis  Napoleon,  the 
vile  man,  must  set  up  in  conquering  England,  and  when  in  his  possession 
will  speak  the  great  words,  as  in  8:  10,  11,  12.  Jesus  said,  "  When  3^0 
shall  see  the  abomination  of  desolation  standing,  where  it  ought  not,  let 
him  that  readeth  understand."  This  abomination  is  now  standing  in 
this  Union,  where  it  ought  not,  in  heaven.  Mark  18  :  14.  This  fulfils  the 
very  words  of  Daniel.  8:  10.  "And  it  waxed  great,  even  unto  the  hosts 
of  heaven,  and  it  cast  down  some  of  the  hosts  of  the  stars  on  the  ground 
and  stamped  on  them."  Mark  now,  as  proven  above,  Abraham  is  in  the 
spirit  of  Louis  Napoleon,  and  as  shown  above,  he  is  the  d§vil  in  heaven, 
and  has  with  his  long  tail  drew  one  third  part  of  the  stars  from  heaven, 
which  was  eleven.    Now,  as  a  star  is  the  emblem  of  a  State,  the  States 


45 

are  the  stars  ho  is  stampinc^  upon  with  the  feet  of  his  army,  Mark, 
whatever  his  army  and  navy  do,  are  the  doings  of  Abraham.  Thus 
everything  goes  precisely  as  Daniel  said. 

Onco  more  Daniel  says  that  this  vile  man  shall  honor  the  god  of  forces, 
and  a  God,  whom  his  father's  knew  not,  shall  he  honor,  with  gold  and  sil- 
ver, and  with  precious  stones,  and  pleasant  things.  Thus  shall  he  do  in 
the  most  strongholds  Avith  a  strange  god,  whom  he  shall  acknowledge 
"and  increase  with  glory,  and  he  shall  cause  them  to  rule  over  many,  and 
shall  divide  the  land  for  gain — 11:38,39.  All  this  Abraham  is  doing, 
and  will  do,  standing  where  it  ought  not.  He  is  even  now  dividing  the 
land  for  gain.  Taking  the  land  from  the  owners  and  giving  it  to  his  own 
people,  those  who  are  with  him  in  setting  up  the  abomination  that  mak- 
eth  desolate,  out  of  place.  You  tell  me  that  in  this  enlightened  age  of 
the  world,  men,  as  free  agents,  could  do  this.  I  tell  you  there  is  not  a 
word  of  truth  in  it.  God  rules  the  armies  of  Heaven,  as  well  as  the 
inhabitants  of  the  earth,  and  none  can  stay  His  hand,  or  say  unto  Him, 
what  doest  Thou  ?  They  must  all  acknowledge  before  this  desolation  is 
over,  as  did  JSTebuchadnezzar — Daniel,  4:  35.  I  don't  say  aught  in  malice, 
Abraham  is  doing  just  what  God  is  making  him,  and  none  can  stay  his 
hand,  or  say  unto  him,  what  doest  thou  ?  The  Most  High  God  ruleth 
the  kingdoms  of  men,  and  giveth  it  to  whomsoever  He  will,  and  sitteth 
the  basest  of  men  upon  thrones — 4,  17.  God  is  continually  bringing 
good  out  of  evil,  and  very  often,  to  accomplish  this,  places  the  basest  of 
men  on  thrones,  as  the  type  set  in  Joseph,  being  by  his  brethren  sold 
into  Egypt,  out  of  which  came  much  good. 

We  Avill  now  notice  another  point  in  connection  with  the  toes  of  the 
image — Daniel,  2:  42,  43.  And  as  the  toes  of  the  feet  were  part  of  iron, 
and  part  of  clay,  so  the  kingdom  shall  be  partly  strong,  and  partly 
broken.  And  whereas,  thou  sawest  iron  mixed  with  miry  claj^,  they 
shall  mingle  themselves  with  the  seed  of  men,  but  they  shall  not  cleave 
one  to  another,  even  as  iron  is  not  mixed  with  clay.  The  kingdom  re- 
ferred to  here  is  the  fourth  kingdom,  England  the  feet  of  the  image, 
which  is  partly  strong  and  partly  broken,  by  the  dividing  of  England 
into  the  Union,  which  are  the  toes  of  the  image.  Had  there  been  a 
crown  worn  in  the  Union  it  would  have  made  a  kingdom  of  it,  but  as 
this  has  not  been  the  case,  it  stands  as  a  part  of  England,  only  divided, 
which  takes  away  part  of  her  strength. 

Again  :  the  toes  of  the  image  should  not  cleave  together,  that  is,  the 
worship  that  constitutes  the  iron  and  the  clay  should  not  cleave  together, 
should  not  be  united  in  Church  and  State,  as  had  been  the  four  king- 
doms which  represent  the  image.  They  shall  mingle  themselves  with 
the  seed  of  men.  Now,  who  are  meant  here  as  mingling  with  the  seed 
of  men?  Answer:  the  seed  of  the  beast,  evidently  Papal  worship, 
whilst  the  Protestants  stand  as  the  seed  of  men.  These  shall  not  cleave 
together,  in  church  and  state,  but  shall  mingle  themselves  together,  live 
in  the  Union,  each  protected  in  his  rights.  Xow%  when  the  little  stone 
comes,  he  will  break  the  image  to  pieces  This  will  break  Papalism 
and  Protestantism  to  pieces,  when  they  will  pass  to  the  four  winds  oi 
Heaven,  and  no  place  found  for  them.  This  will  sweep  away  the  seed 
of  the  beast  and  the  seed  of  man,  making  room  for  the  seed  of  woman, 
the  seed  of  God,  the  seed  of  Jesus,  who  was  made  of  woman.  This 
will  bring  about  a  great  nationality,  Avhich  will  be  the  true  worship 
of  God,  who  will  then  be  judging  the  world  in  righteousness  by  that 
man  whom  he  hath  ordained,  Jesus  Christ,  in  whom  will  be  God. 

Now   I  have  got  through  with  those  points,  1  shall  now  sum  up  and 


46 

connect  the  golden  head,  and  some  other  points,  in  Daniel.  But  before 
1  do  this  I  must  notice  two  historical  facts,  and  then  some  items  con- 
nected, personally  with  Queen  Victoria.  Ist,  then,  some  few  weeks 
since,  I  was  in  conversation  with  a  gentleman  of  this  city,  on  the  sub- 
ject of  the  doctrine,  when  he  asked  me  if  1  knew  where  the  stone  was 
that  Jacob  setup  at  the  time  he  had  the  vision  of  the  ladder — Gen.  18th 
ch.  I  told  him  I  did  not,  as  it  was  not  traced  down  in  the  Scriptures 
further  than  the  close  of  Joshua's  life.  But  in  tlie  Bridegroom  i  had 
pointed  out  that  Jesus  was  the  representative  of  that  stone,  and  that 
he  would  be  the  house  in  whom  Grod  would  have  his  abiding  place. 
He  then  told  me  that  the  literal  stone  was  under  the  chair  of  state  of 
England.  1  asked  him  if  it  was  a  matter  of  history.  He  told  me  it 
was,  and  could  be  found  in  Goldsmith's  History  of  England.  This, 
then,  places  that  stone  under  the  Queen  every  time  she  occupies  the 
chair  of  state.     Keep  this  in  mind. 

2nd.  This  gentleman  then  asked  me  if  I  knew  where  the  crown  of 
David  was.  1  told  him  that  I  did  not  know  where  the  literal  crown 
was,  but  that  in  the  Bridegroom  I  had  proved  that  England  received 
God's  kingdom  in  the  union  of  Scotland  with  England,  by  a  marriage, 
in  which  the  spirit  of  the  crown  of  Scotland  went  to  England,  but  did 
not  know  that  David's  crown  Avas  in  Scotland.  He  then  told  me  that 
it  was  in  Scotland.  I  asked  him  if  it  was  a  matter  of  history.  He  said 
it  was,  and  could  be  found  in  the  history  of  the  kings  of  Scotland,  and 
it  was  the  identical  crown  which  David  wore.  And  furthermore,  that 
the  crown  was  one  stolen  from  the  king  of  Egypt,  by  his  daughter,  and 
given  to  the  Hebrews  when  in  Egyptian  bondage.  Now,  these  things 
being  matter  of  history,  can  you  K)nger  doubt  the  truth  of  my  doctrine  ? 
Again,  there  can  be  no  doubt  that  this  was  the  first  crown  ever  made 
on  earth,  and  that  as  Nimrod  was  the  first  great  leader  of  the  people, 
that  he  had  it  made.  And  no  doubt  that  it  was  set  in  type  for  David,  or 
God's  kingdom,  by  the  crown  made  for  Aaron. 

I  shall  now  notice  the  items  connected  with  her  most  gracious  Majesty", 
Queen  Victoria.  1st.  Some  six  years  ago  she  received  a  golden  star,  a 
present  from  a  king  far  in  the  east.  This  star  is  the  representative  of 
the  star  that  guided  the  wise  men  of  the  East  to  the  babe  of  Bethlehem, 
as  in  Matt.  2d  ch.  2d.  Some  year  or  two  after  this,  her  majesty 
received  a  golden  bedstead,  as  a  present  from  the  Eajah  of  Cashmei'e, 
worth  seven  hundred  and  fifty  thousand  dollars,  as  also  a  Cashmere  tent. 
The  Eajah  certainly  knew  that  she  would  have  to  camp  out,  or  he  would 
not  have  sent  her  a  tent.  3d.  A  year  or  two  after  that  she  also  receiv- 
ed a  golden  crown,  as  a  present  from  a  king  far  in  the  East.  I  have 
forgotten  the  kingdoms  from  which  these  presents  came,  but  that 
don't  destroy  their  value,  neither  does  it  destro}'  the  fact  of  her  having 
received  them.  Keep  these  things  in  mind  now",  whilst  I  go  back  to  the 
first  Adam,  and  trace  up  the  golden  head. 

Here  keep  in  mind  that  Adam  was  the  golden  head  whilst  Eve  was  in 
him,  and  when  she  was  taken  out  of  him  she  was  the  golden  head,  and. 
in  the  garden  of  the  Lord.  Now,  for  the  sake  of  carrying  the  illustration 
more  forcibly,  we  will  call  God  the  golden  God.  He  stood  beyond  Adam, 
and  Eve  on  this  side  of  Adam.  We  now  come  up  to  the  call  of  Abram. 
H  and  Sarah  replace  Adam  and  Eve  at  the  head  of  God's 
natural  kingdom  j  the  golden  head  on  this  side  of  Abraham,  and  the 
golden  God  on  the  other  side.  God  promises  Isaac,  and  afterward  in 
him  as  the  second  person  in  the  Trinity.  This  brings  the  golden  God 
on  this  side  of  the  golden  head.     Keep  these  things  in  mind. 


47 

Again  :  The  next  thing  we  find  worthy  of  mention,  was  a  golden  calf 
made  by  Aaron,  Ex.  o2d  ch.  This  calf  came  whole  out  of  the  fire,  24th 
verse.  Moses  took  the  calf  and  burnt  it  and  ground  it  to  powder,  and 
strewed  it  upon  the  water  and  made  the  people  drink  it,  20th  verse.  Neb- 
uchadnezzar next  comes  in  -as  the  golden  head  of  the  image,  Eve  in 
Adam,  when  he  makes  a  golden  God  and  sets  him  up  on  the  plain  of 
Dura.  This  places  the  golden  God  this  side  the  golden  head.  This  golden 
God  was  a  type  of  Jesus.  Now,  when  Jesus  comes  the  representative 
of  this  golden  God,  and  takes  the  throne  of  the  germ  of  the  golden  head, 
then  her  majesty  will  be  between  the  golden  God  and  Golden  calf, 
the  Pope  being  the  golden  calf,  right  where  Eve  stood  between  God  and 
the  devil. 

Again  :  When  the  spirit  of  the  Golden  Calf  in  Louis  Napoleon  conquers 
the  Queen,  then  she  will  flee  in  the  Great  Eastern,  bringing  her  cabinet 
and  spirit  of  her  throne,  together  Avith  the  golden  crown,  golden  bed- 
stead, and  tent,  and  golden  star-  then  will  the  star  guide  the  wise  men 
of  the  east  to  the  throne  of  the  babe  of  Bethlehem,  making  a  perfect 
letter  to  the  type  set.  Then  the  golden  head  will  put  the  golden  crown 
upon  the  head  of  the  golden  god,  and  when  the  proper  time  arrives  they 
will  lay  on  the  golden  bedstead,  and  the  fruits  will  bS  golden  gods  and 
golden  heads.  None  of  j-our  oak  trees  any  more,  but  golden  gods  and 
golden  heads. 

I  will  now  show  j^ou  the  type  set  for  these  golden  gods.  When  Eachel, 
who  was'the  type  of  the  spiritual  kingdom,  left  her  father's  house,  she 
stole  his  gods. — Gen.  31 :  30th  and32d  verses.  These  gods  she  hid  under 
the  camel's  furniture,  and  sat  upon*them. — 34th  verse.  So  when  her 
father  entered  the  tent  (you  see  here  is  the  tent)  to  search  for  them  she 
made  such  a  lawful  excuse  that  he  never  asked  her  to  get  up. — 35th 
verse.  This  was  the  type  set  for  the  birth  of  Gods.  Jesus  was  born 
from  under  Maiy,  as  were  these  gods  placed;  and  just  as  true  as  was 
he  born  from  under  a  woman  just  so  true  will  gods  be  born  from  under 
Queen  Victoria  as  the  type  set  by  her  sitting  on  the  Chair  of  State,  and 
that  stone  under  her,  which  Jacob  said  should  be  the  house  of  God. 
This  will  start  the  second  birth,  and  when  completed  the  world  of  man- 
kind will  be  immortal.  God  in  all,  and  death,  God's  last  enemy  de- 
stroyed, then  every  heart  Avill  be  a  fit  temple  for  the  Holy  Ghost  to  dwell 
in,  and  God's  house  conipleted.  This  is  the  summing  up  of  the  golden 
head.  Now,  let  me  ask  any  sane  man  or  woman  what  fault  they  can 
find  with  this.  Here  no  doubt  one  will  say  the  Queen  is  too  old  to  have 
children.  Kemember  Sai'ah  of  old  and  then  you  will  not  think  so — more 
especially  as  the  same  God  will  be  in  Jesus  that  took  away  Sarah's  bar- 
renness; and  he  can  take  away  all  the  barrenness  the  Queen  will  have. 

Again  :  The  Queen  is  the  only  heir  now  living  to  that  throne;  and  as 
the  two  thrones  must  be  united  by  a  marriage,  as  Jesus  being  the  seed 
of  the  woman  in  man,  there  is  no  alternative  but  the  marriage  must  take 
place  between  Jesus  and  the  Queen.  According  to  the  law  of  David's 
kingdom,  the  Prince  of  Wales  is  not  an  heir  to  that  thi'one,  and  there- 
fore never  will  occupy  it,  from  the  very  fiict  that  he  is  not  of  the  seed 
of  the  king.  There  was  no  seed  on  the  throne,  nothing  but  the  soul, 
hence  the  soul  comes  out  of  the  union  in  the  women  of  the  Southern  Con- 
federacy. Jesus  comes  with  the  immortal  body,  and  must  therefore 
have  the  woman,  who  wears  the  crown  of  the  soul  on  a  throne. 

Again  :  The  four  Hebrew  children  taken  to  Nebuchadnezzar  were  of 
the  seed  of  the  king  and  princess.  It  is  reasonable  to  suppose  that 
Daniel  was  of  the  seed  of  the  king,  as  he  was  cast  into  the  lion's  den. 


48 

Furthermore,  we  find  that  Daniel  stood  aa  God  in  man.  In  Dan.,  9th 
chapter,  28th  verse,  he  tells  Nebuchadnezzar  that  it  belongs  to  God  to 
reveal  secrets.  He  then  goes  on  and  reveals  to  the  king  the  secrets  of 
the  image,  and  closes  by  saying  the  Great  God  hath  made  known  to  the 
king  what  shall  come  to  pass  hereafter.— 45th  ver.se.  This  shows  most 
conclusively  that  Daniel  stood  god  in  man."  Again,  we  have  still  further 
evidence  of  this  fact.  Nebuchadnezzar  dreamed  this  dream  about' the 
image,  and  when  he  awoke  he  had  forgotten  it.  He  then  called  his  wise 
men  together,  and  requested  them  to  tell  him  the  dream  and  the  inter- 
pretation of  it.  This  they  could  not  do,  and  he  therefore  decreed  their 
death.  Now,  why  was  it  that  he  forgot  the  dream?  Answer — God 
stood  in  him.  Mark,  he  was  then  the  golden  head  of  the  image,  and 
dreamed  the  dream,  and  then  left  him,  when  of  course  he  forgot  it.  God 
then  stood  in  Daniel,  and  told  him  the  dream,  and  then  interpreted  it  for 
him.  This  made  Daniel  God  in  man,  when  he  went  on  finishing  all  the 
items  in  connection  with  the  setting  up  of  God's  kingdom. 

Again:  When  Darius  was  placed  on  the  throne  of  Babylon  he  placed 
over  the  whole  kingdom  one  hundred  and  twenty  princes,  and  over  them 
three  presidents,  of  whom  Daniel  was  first.  Now,  as  tiiis  Daniel  was 
preferred  above  all  others,  the  king  thought  to  place  him  over  the  whole 
realm. — 6  :  1st,  2d,  and  3d  verses.  You  must  here  keep  in  mind  that  this 
Union  stands  as  Babylon  standing  where  it  ought  not,  and  it  now  has 
two  Presidents,  and  when  Jesus  comes  the  spirit  now  in  Daniel  the 
second  M'ill  be  transferred  to  Jesus,  when  Jesus  will  stand  as  Daniel  the 
first,  and  be  made  President  over  the  two — will  stand  as  first  President — 
when  he  will  take  his  father's  (Dai»id's)  throne,  as  in  Luke  1  :  32.  This 
throne  is  the  throne  of  England,  and  thus  the  seed  of'  God  heir  to  the 
throne  of  England.  By  this  j^ou  will  see  that  it  is  not  possible  that  the 
Prince  of  Wales  can  ever  obtain  that  throne,  as  he  is  not  the  seed  of  the 
king.  Then  there  is  no  earthly  way  to  get  around  the  fact  that  her 
Majesty  must  be  the  Christ  of  Our  Lord  Jesus.  And  this  will  give  all 
the  kingdoms  of  the  earth  to  Our  Lord  and  His  Christ,  as  in  Eev.  11: 
15,  Then  the  crown  of  David,  now  in  Scotland,  the  first  crown  ever 
made,  will  be  cast  at  the  feet  of  him  who  sits  on  the  throne,  followed  by 
all  the  crowns  in  the  world,  as  in  Eev.  4:  10,  11.  This  will  end  the 
reign  of  terror  on  earth,  and  not  until  then  will  it  be  ended. 

Another  item  in  this  connection.  When  her  Majesty,  Queen  Victoria, 
flees  to  the  kingdom  of  Jesus,  she  will  letter  the  type  set  by  Jacob  in 
blessing  Judah  for  the  last  time.  Gen.  49:  10.  "The  sceptre  shall  not 
depart  from  Judah,  nor  a  lawgiver  fi'om  between  his  feet,  until  Shiloh 
come,  and  unto  him  shall  the  gathering  of  the  people  be."  In  this  con- 
nection keep  in  mind  that  England  stands  in  the  spirit  of  Judah,  and 
that  Jacob  comes  in  Jesus;  he  was  also  set  in  t3'pe  in  the  Isle  of  Man, 
between  the  two  feet  of  the  image,  the  two  of  Judah,  the  iron  kingdom 
in  the  image.  So  when  this  fleeing  takes  place,  the  Queen  will  bring 
the  sceptre  and  the  lawgiver  to  Jesus,  the  promised  Shiloh;  and  unto 
him  the  gathering  of  the  people  shall  be.  Yes,  unto  him  will  be  the 
gathering  of  all  the  nations  of  the  earth.         t 

Again,  Woman  is  the  soul  of  man.  This  could  not  be  if  they  were 
not  of  God,  a  part  of  that  never-dying  spirit  called  God.  Hence  Queen 
Victoria  is  the  soul  of  David's  throne,  and  Jesus  will  be  the  body  of  that 
throne.  Hence  the  Soul  of  God  brings  the  sceptre  and  lawgiver  to  God 
in  Jesus,  Jesus  himself  being  the  body  as  immortal  as  the  soul.  Hence 
the  sceptre  and  lawgiver  will  stand  in  Jesus  and  his  Christ  jointly,   both 


49 

occupyin.i^  the  throne,  the  Godhead  standing  male  and  female,  from 
whom  will  eminate  the  laws  for  the  government  of  the  Avorld.  K^ow  let 
this  suffice  on  this  head,  whilst  I  notice  a  few  more  items  in  connection 
•with  Louis  Napoleon. 

In  the  11th  chapter,  27th  verse,  we  are  told  that  certain  kings  shall 
speak  lies  at  the  same  table,  but  it  shall  not  prosper.  The  only  wa}-  that 
kings  speak  lies  at  the  same  table,  is  by  breaking  treaties,  and  this  will 
uo  doubt  be  done  ere  long,  as  the  angel  says  that  this  vile  man  shall 
prove  deceitful,  in  regard  to  the  alliance  between  hitn  and  England. 
There  may  also  a  Congress  meet;  if  so,  it  will  be  a  useless  affair,  as  what 
will  there  be  done  will  not  be  lived  up  to.  Again.  Edom,  Moab,  and  the 
chief  of  the  children  of  Amnion  shall  escape  his  hand.  11th  chapter, 
4l8t  verse.  In  the  Bridegroom,  I  pi-oved  to  you  that  Moab,  was  Japan, 
and  Amnion  China,  and  this  Union  Edom,  as  in  Gen.  36  :  1,  8.  Esau  is 
Edom,  and  as  above,  Abraham  is  Esau,  hence  the  Union  is  Esau.  I  stated 
in  the  Bridegroom  that  the  Union  had  nothing  to  fear  from  Napoleon. 
But  you  will  see  hero  that  this  account  stands  connected  with  Napoleon, 
after  he  has  conquered  England,  and  therefore  he  may  make  some 
demonstration  against  the  Union  before  Jesus  comes,  or  before  he  bursts 
out  against  England.  But  as  Napoleon  and  Abraham  are  in  the  same 
spirit,  I  think  that  it  is-not  at  all  likel}'. 

Again.  You  will  see  by  reading  the  11th  chapter,  from  the  21st  verse, 
that  the  same  vile  man  conducts  one  side  of  the  affair  to  the  end,  and 
then  plant  the  tabernacles  of  his  palace  between  the  seas  in  the  glorious 
holy  mountain.  Yet  he  shall  come  to  his  end  and  none  shall  help  him. 
This  personage  is  Louis  Napoleon.  The  glorious  holy  mountain  here  is 
the  kingdom  of  God,  set  up  on  the  ruins  of  all  other  kingdoms.  Moun- 
tains are  tj'pes  of  kingdoms.  Hence  it  follows  that  after  Louis  Napoleon 
has  been  the  devil  for  the  time  appointed  by  God,  he  shall  come  to  his 
end  in  God's  kingdom  without  help,  implying  that  he  shall  die  a  natural 
death.  I  now  state  what  I  stated  six  years  ago,  viz :  that  there  is  not 
powder  and  ball  enough  in  the  world  to  kill  him.  Neither  is  there 
enough  to  kill  Queen  Victoria.  When  God  has  persons  born  for  a  certain 
purpose,  they  are  not  to  be  killed,  as  was  the  case  with  Washington,  and 
old  Bonaparte,  and  as  will  be  the  case  with  the  two  named  above.  By 
this  time,  no  doubt,  you  will  think  the  devil  is  God's  right  hand  man. 
Mark,  there  could  have  been  no  Judas  without  a  Jesus,  and  therefore  no 
devil  without  a  God.  Judas  prepared  the  way  for  the  crucifixion  of 
Jesus,  and  the  devil  prepares  the  waj'  for  the  crucifixion  of  the  world  of 
mankind.     God  natural.     Everything  that  is,  is  right. 

I  will  now  notice  the  last  chapter  in  Daniel.  The  angel  tells  Daniel 
that  Michael  shall  stand  up  at  that  time,  the  great  prince  which  standeth 
for  the  children  of  thy  people,  and  there  should  be  a  time  of  trouble, 
such  as  never  was  since  there  was  a  nation  even  to  that  same  time,  and 
at  that  time  thy  people  shall  be  delivered,  every  one  that  shall  be  found 
written  in  the  book.  And  many  of  them  that  sleep  in  the  dust  of  the 
earth  shall  awake,  some  to  everlasting  life  and  some  to  everlasting  con- 
tempt. Mark,  this  Michael  was  Daniel's  prince,  as  in  the  10th  chapter, 
21st  verse.  Here  you  must  also  keep  in  mind  that  none  but  Gabriel  and 
Michael  knew  of  the  Scripture  truth  in  regard  to  these  matters.  Gabriel 
was  first  spirit  and  Michael  second  spirit  in  the  Trinity,  one  the  Father 
and  the  other  son.  Hence,  when  Jesus  comes,  he  stands  as  Michael, 
Daniel's  prince,  with  the  spirit  of  Gabriel  in  him  representing  Father  in 
Son.  These  are  the  two  candlesticks  standing  before  the  Lord  of  the 
earth;  as  in  Rev.  11:  4.     These  were  the  same  two  golden  pipes  emptying 


50 

the  oil  out  of  themselves,  as  in  Zeeh.  4  :  12.  They  pass  the  spirit  to  man 
on  earth,  and  rule  the  armies  of  heaven,  as  well  as  the  inhabitants  of 
earth,  which  will  bring  about  the  great  calamity  mentioned  here.  This 
calamity  is  to  take  place  at  the  time  the  vile  man  rules,  as  in  the  llth 
chapter. 

Again:  At  that  time  every  one  of  Daniel's  people  found  written  in, 
the  book  shall  be  delivered.  The  book  referred  to  here  is  the  Jewish 
scriptures,  and  every  one  w^ho  has  lived  up  to  the  laws  given  to  Moses 
in  the  cloud,  will  escape  this  calamity,  will  escape  death,  and  be  deliv- 
ered from  the  kings,  or  rulers,  under  whom  they  have  lived  for  the  last 
two  thousand  3'ears,  or  from  the  days  of  Daniel.  That  is,  those  who  are 
alive  on  earth  when  Michael  stands  up  for  his  people.  It  has  nothing 
whatever  to  do  with  those  who  have  died,  or  with  the  dead  of  the  Gen- 
tiles. Those  referred  to  as  sleeping  in  the  dust  of  the  earth,  embrace 
those  who  are  ignorant  of  coming  events,  the  dust  of  the  earth  being 
the  bod}^  in  which  the  man  lives  and  sleeps,  the  sleei^ing  being  the  same 
as  that  in  the  parable  of  the  ten  virgins,  where  they  all  slept  and  slum- 
bered till  midnight,  when  the  cry  of  the  coming  of  the  bridegroom 
sounded,  which  waked  them  up.  Some  shall  wake  to  everlasting  life, 
and  some  to  shame  and  everlasting  contempt.  That  is,  some  will  wake 
up  at  the  coming  of  Jesus  as  the  Messiah,  and  accept  him  cheerfully, 
whilst  others  will  not,  and  therefore  will  awake  to  shame  and  everlast- 
ing contempt,  feel  guilty.  The  word,  everlasting,  has  no  such  thing  as 
an  endless  meaning  in  this  connection. 

3d  verse.  And  they  that  be  wise  shall  shine  as  the  brightness  of 
the  firmament,  and  they  that  turn  manj^  to  righteousness,  as  the  stars 
forever  and  ever.  Keep  in  mind  that  old  things  must  then  pass  away, 
and  new  things  take  their  place,  w^hen  the  wise  will  shine  for  their 
good  works.  Then  men  won't  be  afraid  to  do  God's  work  for  fear 
they  will  be  evil  spoken  of  The  sum  and  substance  of  the  whole  verse 
is  that  good  works  will  be  rewarded,  whilst  evil  works  will  be  punished, 
not  as  it  is  now,  evil  rewarded  and  good  punished. 

4th  verse.  But  thou,  0,  Daniel,  shut  up  the  words  and  seal  the  book, 
even  to  the  time  of  the  end,  many  shall  run  to  and  fro,  and  knowledge 
increase.  Here  you  see  that  Daniel  was  instructed  to  seal  up  the  book 
until  the  time  of  the  end.  And  at  the  time  of  the  end  many  should 
run  to  and  fro,  and  knowledge  should  increase.  According  to  this  we 
must  certainly  be  near  the  end,  as  there  has  never  been  a  time  since 
the  world  began,  in  which  the  people  have  run  to  and  fro,  as  now. 
Moreover,  knowledge  has  never  increased  so  rapidly  since  the  world 
began,  as  in  the  last  twenty  years,  which  must  be  very  strong  evidence 
that  we  are  near  the  end  referred  to. 

5th,  6th  and  7th  verses.  Daniel  gives  an  account  of  seeing  one 
clothed  in  linen,  asking,  how  long  shall  it  be  to  the  end  of  these  won- 
ders ?  The  answer  was,  for  a  time,  times  and  a  half,  and  when  he  shall 
have  accomplished  to  scatter  the  power  of  the  holy  people,  all  these 
things  shall  be  finished.  You  must  here  keep  in  mind  that  this  inquiry- 
Btarts  with  the  scattering  of  the  power  of  the  holy  people,  hence  it  com- 
mences with  the  conquest  of  England,  as  in  11  :  31.  When  the  sanc- 
tuary of  strength  is  polluted,  and  the  abomination  that  maketh  desolate 
set  up.  From  that  time  it  shall  be  time,  times,  and  an  half.  The  lowest 
computation  of  scripture  time,  times,  and  an  half,  will  be  three  years 
and  a  half  The  same  can  bo  extended  up  to  any  number  and  an  half. 
As  the  seventh  king  who  is  to  make  the  seventh  head  for  the  dragon, 
abide  a  short  space,  as  in  Eev.  17  :  13,  it  is  not    likely  that  this 


51 

time,  times,  and  an  half,  will  embrace  more  than  thi-ee  or  four  years 
and  a  half,  or  five  years  and  a  half,  at  most,  inasmuch  as  the  great 
calamity  must  close  with  the  j'car  71.  This  time,  times,  and  an  half,  is 
the  same  the  woman  fled  for  in  Rev.  12  :  17,  and  will  be  the  fleeing  of 
Queen  Yictoria,  which  settles  the  matter  in  regard  to  the  starting  point 
for  tlie  time,  times,  and  an  half,  in  Daniel. 

Again  :  this  is  the  same  time,  times,  and  the  dividing  of  time  men- 
tioned by  the  Angel,  in  Wis  explanation  to  Daniel,  in  regard  to  things 
seen  in  the  night  vision — 7th  ch.  25th  verse.  When  the  little  horn  was 
to  wear  out  the  saints  as  it  was.  This  Avill  be  represented  by  Louis  Xa- 
poleon,  when  in  possession  of  England.  It  shall  then  be  time,  times  and 
the  dividing  of  time,  when  the  kingdom  and  dominion,  and  the  greatness 
of  the  kingdom  under  the  whole  Heaven  shall  be  given  to  the  people  ot 
the  saints  of  the  Most  High,  when  God  shall  sit  and  judge  the  Avorld. 
This  brings  all  the  time,  times  and  a  half  to  one  starting  point. 

8th,  9th  and  10th  verses.  "And  I  heai-d,  but  I  understood  not,  the  n 
said  I,  O,  my  Lord,  what  shall  be  the  end  of  these  things.  And  he  said, 
Go  thy  way,  Daniel,  for  the  words  are  closed  up  and  sealed  till  the  lime 
of  the  end.  Many  shall  be  purified  and  made  Avhito,  and  tried,  but  the 
wicked  shall  do  wickedly,  and  none  of  the  Avicked  shall  understand,  but 
the  righteous  shall  understand."  Here  you  will  see  that  Daniel  said,  O, 
m}^  God,  what  shall  be  the  end  of  these  things  ?  And  He  said,  Go  thy 
way,  Daniel.  This  implies  that  God  was  there  in  the  Angel  Gabriel,  and 
told  him  to  go  his  way.  Then  it  follows  that  these  are  the  very  Avords 
of  God.  When  talking  on  this  subject  with  people,  they  invariably  say 
the  wicked  will  cease  to  do  wickedly  when  God  comes.  I  have  always 
answered  right  to  the  reverse,  that  they  would  try  to  kill  God.  Here 
God  settles  the  matter  by  saying  they  shall  continue  to  do  wickedly. 

11th  verse.  "And  ft-om  the  time  the  daily  sacrifice  shall  be  taken  away 
and  the  abomination  that  maketh  desolate  set  up,  there  shall  be  one 
thousand  two  hundred  and  ninety  days."  Here  jov.  see  God  settles  the 
matter.  Mark,  he  continues  to  speak  to  the  end.  He  says  it  shall  be 
twelve  hundred  and  ninety  days  from  the  time  the  abomination  that 
maketh  desolate  is  set  up,  to  the  end.  Mark,  now,  these  are  literal  daj-s 
with  us,  and  not  prophetic  days.  This  is  proven  by  the  fact  that  they 
start  from  the  same  point  at  which  the  time,  times  and  half  start  from, 
viz  :  The  setting  up  of  the  abomination  that  maketh  desolate,  as  in  11th 
ch.  31st  verse.  And  furthermore,  God  gives  these  days  to  explain  the 
time,  times  and  an  half,  given  by  the  man  clothed  in  linen,  to  Daniel. 

12th  verse.  "Blessed  is  he  that  waiteth  and  cometh  to  the  thousand 
three  hundred  and  five  and  thirtj^  days.  This  jon  will  see  is  forty-five 
days  longer  than  the  number  just  mentioned,  which  will  end  forty-five 
daj's  after  the  great  battle  of  Armageddon  is  over.  Hence  he  that  is 
not  born  until  that  time  will  be  blessed,  inasmuch  as  there  will  be  no 
more  wars  or  fighting  on  earth.  The  sword  will  then  have  been  beat 
into  -the  plowshare,  and  the  spear  into  the  pruning  hook,  and  men  learn 
war  no  more.  This  will  most  certainly  be  a  great  blessing  to  the  new-comer. 
Besides,  the  famine  and  pestilence  will  all  have  gone  by,  and  trials  and 
troubles  ceased.  Peace  and  good-will  will  then  reign  on  earth  among 
men,  and  God  will  be  their  king,  judging  the  world  as  a  king  now  judges, 
the  onl}'  difterence  Avill  be  that  God  will  be  a  just  and  righteous  king. 

This  brings  me  to  the  last  verse  of  the  prophecy.  "But  go  th}-  way 
till  the  end  be,  for  thou  shalt  rest,  and  stand  in  thy  lot  at  the  end  of  the 
day."  Here  you  will  see  that  Daniel  was  promised  to  stand  in  his  lot  at 
the  end  of  the  days.     The  end  of  the  days  referred  to  here,  was  used  in 


52 

the  same  sense  as  the  end  of  the  vision.  The  time  when  God  sets  up  the 
kingdom  of  which  Daniel  pi'ophecied.  Daniel  is  the  only  prophet  in  the 
book  having  this  promise  from  God.  Daniel  is  also  the  only  prophet 
that  prophesied  directly  of  God  setting  up  a  kingdom  in  the  days  of  cer- 
tain kings.  And  Daniel  was  the  only  prophet  having  been  cast  into  the 
lions'  den.  All  these  things  taken  together,  and  man}'  more  that  I  might 
name,  make  Daniel  apeeuliar  prophet,  and  one  worthy  of  such  a  promise. 

Again.  Now,  would  it  be  reasonable  to  tl^inkHhat  God  intended  that 
the  same  Daniel,  in  the  same  body,  should  fulfill  this  promise  by  standing 
in  his  lot  at  the  end  of  the  days  ?  I  think  not.  God  knew  that  Daniel 
was  a  mortal  man.  He  also  knew  that  the  setting  up  of  that  kingdom 
would  be  many  hundred  years  after  the  promise,  and  therefore  could  not 
have  intended  that  same  Daniel  to  stand  in  person  in  his  lot  when  God 
would  set  up  the  kingdom.  It  is  therefore  reasonable  to  believe  that  God 
designed  that  a  man  by  the  name  of  Daniel  should  fill  the  place  alluded 
to.  and  also  that  this  Daniel  should  be  a  Gentile  instead  of  a  Jew.  This 
is  the  most  reasonable,  inasmuch  as  Jesus  is  coming  to  unite  the  Jews  and 
Gentiles,  absorb  them  both,  and  as  the  first  Daniel  was  a  Jew,  as  well  as 
the  first  Abraham,  so  the  second  Daniel  should  be  a  Gentile,  as  well  as 
the  second  Abraham. 

Again.  The  only  object  God  could  have  had  in  making  this  promise, 
must  have  been-  to  have  a  Daniel  here  as  there,  and  God  spake  in  him 
here  as  there,  and  thus  God  would  give  warning  of  his  coming  to  set  up 
the  kingdom  referred  to.  It  most  certainly  would  be  of  no  use  to  have 
a  man  here  unless  for  some  purpose,  and  some  special  purpose  too.  We 
have  many  Daniels  here  now,  no  doubt,  so  unless  God  speaks  in  the  one 
sent,  no  one  could  tell  the  difference.  Hence  the  only  way  to  find  out 
the  rigbt  one,  is  for  him  to  interpret  the  image  correctly,  in  four  king- 
doms, as  Daniel  the  first  did.  Now,  if  when  you  have  read  the  inter- 
pretation of  the  image  by  Daniel  the  second,  and  it  agrees  with  the  inter- 
pretation of  Daniel  the  first,  then  set  it  down  for  granted  that  Daniel  the 
second  is  here  in  his  place,  as  promised  to  Daniel  the  first.  Then  pre- 
pare to  meet  your  God,  for  behold,  the  Bridegroom  cometh,  go  ye  out  to 
meet  him.     My  doctrine  is  not  mine,  but  his  that  sent  rae. 

Now,  reader,  I  have  got  to  the  end  of  this  prophecy,  and  have  written 
only  what  Daniel's  God  put  on  my  tongue.  I  have  "not  said  aught  in 
malice;  I  have  not  spoken  so  plain  because  my  sympathies  are  with  the 
South.  No,  my  sj-mpathies  are  only  with  the  South,  because  God  has 
put  this  doctrine  on  my  tongue.  Hence  how  could  I  do  otherwise  than 
speak  it  out  plain.  Had  the'North  seceded  from  the  South,  and  the  new 
Confederacy  appeared  in  the  North,  then  the  North  would  have  been 
God's  garden,  and  my  sympathies  Avould  have  been  with  the  North.  But 
God's  waj-s  are  not  man's  ways,  neither  are  his  thoughts  man's  thoughts. 
1  have  said  from  the  time  Abraham  took  the  Chair  of  State,  that  he 
would  do  precisely  what  he  has  been  doing.  And  I  have  said  from  the 
first,  that  he  was  chosen  to  fill  that  place  by  God  himself,  and  God  rules 
the  armies  of  heaven,  and  give  this  as  the  reason  that  neither  party  in 
Virginia  could  follow  up  a  victory.  God  Almighty  is  ruling,  and  man  is 
the  machine  in  his  hand,  and  are  compelled  to  do  as  they  have  been,  and 
will  continue  to  do.  I  have  stated  from  the  first,  that  the  South  must  be 
crucified  first,  as  it  is  the  germ  of  the  throne  of  Jesus,  after  which  the 
North  must  be  crucified,  and  then  must  follow  the  crucifixion  of  the 
whole  world.  You  see  that  the  words  given  me  in  the  illustration  of 
this  prophecy  proves  all  I  have  said.  I  shall  now  proceed  to  connect 
with  this  Abraham's  mission  as  the  representative  of  Abraham  of  old. 


53 

I  will  now  cite  you  to  the  22d  chapter  of  Genesis,  where  you  will  jSnd 
an  account  of  God  tempting  Abraham  to  offer  up  Isaac,  his  son,  as  a 
burnt  oft'ering.  Abraham  rose  up  early  in  the  morning,  and  saddled  his 
ass,  took  his  two  young  men,  and  Isaac  his  son,  and  clave  wood  for  the 
burnt  offering,  lie  went  three  days' journey,  when  he  came  in  sight  of 
the  place  where  the  offering  was  wont  to  be  made.  He  then  ])ul  the 
wood  upon  Isaac,  and  he  bore  it  to  the  place  of  offering,  when  the  ram 
was  offered  in  the  place  of  Isaac.  Such  is  a  brief  statement  of  the  case. 
Now  here  I  want  you  to  keep  in  mind  that  there  were  none  living  on 
earth  in  that  day  but  Indian  tribes,  save  Isaac,  the  promised  child.  It 
therefore  follows  that  Abraham  was  an  Indian,  as  had  been  the  first 
Adam,  the  red  man. 

We  now  come  up  to  the  close  of  the  term  of  the  thirteenth  President 
in  the  New  Jerusalem  natural.  A  Convention  is  called  to  nominate  a 
President  to  fill  the  place  of  the  thirteenth.  This  Convention  meets  in 
a  most  northwestern  city,  when  God  calls  a  man  to  represent  Abraham 
of  old.  This">jnan's  name  is  Abraham,  and  in  order  to  prove  that  he  was 
chosen  h}^  God  to  represent  Abraham  of  old,  God  makes  them  call  the 
house  in  which  he  was  nominated  a  wigwam — an  Indian  habitation. 
This  was  the  very  reason  why  Seward,  the  father  of  the  party,  was  not 
called.  God  Avas  determined  to  leave  evidence  on  record  sufficient  to 
prove  that  he  was  ruling  instead  of  man. 

Again:  The  election  campaign  commences,  when  God  makes  them 
give  Abraham  a  spiritual  maul  and  wedge,  and  makes  them  call  him  the 
rail  splitter.  God  then  makes  them  elect  him,  and  before  the  time  arrives 
for  him  to  start  for  the  Chair  of  State  the  maul  and  wedge  has  cleaved 
off  seven  States  from  the  Union.  Seven  rails  split  off,  the  wood  is  now 
clave  for  the  offering,  proving  the  South  to  be  the  wood.  And  in  further 
proof  of  this,  the  first  State  split  off  has  a  tree  on  its  flag.  You  will  see 
that  this  corresponds  precisely  with  the  cutting  down  the  Liberty  Tree 
as  above. 

Again  :  As  soon  as  the  wood  was  clave,  Abraham  saddles  his  ass  and 
goes  his  three  days'  journey  to  where  the  offering  was  wont  to  be  made. 
In  the  chapter  on  the  Jewish  kingdom  I  shall  prove  to  you  that  the 
Union  is  the  ass,  and  the  Chair  of  State  the  saddle,  the  spirit  of  which 
started  Abraham  from  his  home  to  Washington,  in  sight  of  the  place 
where  the  offering  was  wont  to  be  made.  He  however  was  more  than 
three  days  going,  but  it  is  not  more  than  a  three  days'  journej'.  Since 
then  preparation  for  the  offering  has  been  making,  whilst  the  South 
stands  in  the  spirit  of  Isaac  natural,  who  had  the  wood  on  him  and  bore 
it  to  the  place  of  the  offering,  which  proves  the  North  the  ram,  the  beast, 
and  Abraham  its  head.  Here  keep  in  mind  that  the  South  never  cast  a 
single  electoral  vote  for  Abraham,  consequently  they  did  not  help  to  put 
the  head  there.  Isaac  did  not  help  to  put  the  ram  on  the  altar.  These 
things  correspond  precisely,  proving  the  Great  God  to  be  the  Kuler. 

Again  :  Now  let  me  ask  you  what  becomes  of  the  wood  and  the  offer- 
ing when  made  ?  Answer — Both  disappeared ;  but  the  wood  must  burn 
first.  Just  so  it  is  that  the  South  is  now  burning,  and  has  been  since 
Abraham  arrived  in  sight  of  the  place  the  offering  was  wont  to  be  made. 
Now,  if  it  was  not  for  one  peculiar  feature  in  this  offering  the  whole 
Union,  North  and  South,  would  disappear  in  this  great  struggle,  and  that 
is  this:  Isaac  was  a  type  of  Jesus,  and  Jesus  bore  the  wood  on  him — 
bore  His  cross.  So  Jesus  must  be  here  before  Abraham  leaves  the  Chair 
of  State,  when  he  will  take  the  wood  upon  Him  and  bear  it  to  the  place 
•where  the  offering  will  be  made.    Just  as  true  as  Abraham  the  first  and 


54 

Isaac  were  together  when  the  type  of  this  offering  was  set,  just  so  true 
must  Jesus  be  here  before  Abraham  the  second  leaves  the  Chair  of  State. 
Then  the  ram  will  bo  caught  by  the  horns  in  the  thicket  (thicket  implies 
an  undergrowth  of  timber,  and  horns  implies  power),  when  the  offering 
will  be  completed,  which  will  literall}^  destroy  the  North,  and  set  up 
God's  kingdom  on  the  germ  of  the  seed  in  the  woman.  Now,  you  cannot 
help  but  see  that  these  matters  have  all  been  typical  in  the  Bible,  and 
that  God  is  coming  to  make  the  letters  to  the  types. 

Again  :  As  further  proof  that  Abraham  was  chosen  to  represent  an  In- 
dian, I  will  cite  you  the  fact  that  three  out  of  every  four  of  his  warships 
are  called  by  Indian  names.  And  for  the  same  reason  an  Indian  spirit 
wished  to  speak  to  him  at  a  S2)iritual  circle  held  at  his  mansion  some 
months  since.  All  this  proves  that  God  makes  Abraham  act  to  fill  the 
place  of  an  Indian.  Also,  as  further  pi*oof  that  the  South  is  the  wood,  I 
will  cite  you  the  fact  that  they  kept  the  Union  army  at  bay  for  more 
than  six  months  with  wooden  cannon  placed  in  position — pine  logs  in 
the  place  of  cannon,  And  further,  a  thousand  wooden  muskets  were 
found  in  Tennessee.  You  may  rest  assured  that  all  these  things  have 
not  happened  by  chance.  I  do  not  name  these  things  because  I  find 
fault;  no,  but  to  show  you  that  you  are  carrj^ing  out  the  plans  of  God. 

Now,  whilst  on  this  subject,  I  will  notice  the  new  power  in  the  germ 
of  the  seed,  and  standing  in  the  woman.  Let  us  test  it  b}'"  the  sowing  of 
seed,  as  Paul  illustrates  the  Eesurrection.  Suppose  you  plant  a  grain  of 
corn  and  the  germ  sprouts  and  grows,  what  becomes  of  the  life  in  the 
body  of  the  grain  ?  Answer — It  goes  into  the  germ  and  makes  a  new 
stalk,  and  the  grain  rots.  Just  so  Avith  the  old  Union.  It  is  the  grain, 
and  the  germ  has  sprouted;  and  just  as  certain  as  the  life  of  the  grain  of 
corn  goes  into  the  germ,  and  the  grain  rot,  so  must  every  drop  of  life's 
blood  in  the  old  Union  pass  into  the  new,  and  the  old  Union  rot.  These 
are  facts  which  no  mortal  man  can  get  around.  I  do  not  want  you  to 
understand  me  that  every  man  in  the  old  Union  must  be  killed;  no,  but 
when  the  seed  of  the  woman  takes  the  germ  of  the  seed  it  must  over- 
shadow the  whole  land— yes,  the  whole  world — and  in  that  way  the  seed 
must  rot,  and  the  germ  grow. 

Again  :  Let  us  now  be  certain  that  this  is  the  germ  of  the  seed.  Some 
men  might  dispute  and  say  that  the  new  power  is  not  the  germ  of  the 
seed.  The  only  way  you  can  tell  the  germ  of  the  seed  is  by  its  products. 
Yo^  say  that  wheat  was  produced  by  the  germ  of  wheat,  and  the  same 
with  corn,  rye,  and  barley,  and  so  on.  This  is  the  only  way  of  arriving 
at  the  matter.  Now,  let  us  apply  this  rule  to  the  new  power.  They 
have  got  a  national  flag  with  stars  and  stripes.  They  have  the  same 
constitution.  They  have  a  President  and  a  Cabinet  of  seven  members. 
They  have  forts  and  fortifications,  and  in  fine,  they  have  the  germ  of  the 
old  Union.  Here  again  is  the  manifestation  of  God  to  you  as  the  wit- 
ness of  His  work.  Had  it  not  been  the  work  of  God  they  would  have 
had  everything  different;  'they  being  disgusted  with  the  old  Union  would 
not  have  adopted  the  present  form  of  government.  But  having  adopted 
it  is  positive  proof  they  are  not  free  agents,  and  must  do  the  bidding  of 
God  under  the  veil. 

I  will  now  point  you  to  another  type  set  by  Abraham  the  first.  Abra- 
ham armed  three  hundred  and  eighteen  servants  born  in  his  own  house, 
and  went  and  recaptured  Lot,  who  had  been  taken  prisoner  by  the  Sod- 
omites— Gen.  14  :  1-4.  This  type,  Abraham  the  second,  was  obliged  to 
set  here,  standing  where  it  ought  not.  I  stated  when  he  took  the  chair 
of  State,  that  he  would  have  to  emancipate  the  servants  and  arm  them, 


55 

which  has  been  fully  verified.  But  mark,  they  were  not  born  in  bis  own 
house,  as  in  this  case  the  North  elected  hira,  and  the  North  is  his  house. 
This  will  drive  the  South  to  train  their  servants,  so  when  God  conies  in 
Jesus,  in  the  Trinity  set  ia  type  by  Abraham,  Isaac  and  Jacob,  he  will 
take  the  train  of  servants  born  in  his  own  house,  in  the  garden  of  the 
Lord,  and  recapture  Lot.  The  South  stands  in  the  spirit  of  Lot,  and  the 
North  in  the  spirit  of  the  Sodomite  kings.  Then  God  will  make  the 
letter  to  the  type,  this  train  of  servants  will  be  as  thorns  in  the  sides  of 
those  who  have  been  meddling  with  them,  as  in  Judges,  2  :  3o — And 
their  gods  shall  be  a  snare  unto  you.     This  will  make  an  awful  calamity. 

I  will  now  give  this,  the  finishing  touch.  Before  Abraham  the  first 
could  be  a  full  representative  of  the.  first  Adam,  he  had  to  have  a  child 
born  to  him  by  a  bond-woman,  a  black  woman.  This  child  was  to  rep- 
resent Cain,  the  son  of  Adam,  whom  God  made  black  bj'  the  curse.  This 
son  was  named  Ishmael,  an  account  of  which  will  be  found  in  Gen.  IGth 
ch.  Now,  Abraham  the  second  must  have  this  spirit  with  him  in  order 
to  fully  represent  Abraham  the  first.  This  will  be  found  in  the  Vice 
President,  Hamlin.  This  will  fulh'  represent  the  red  and  black  blood  on 
the  throne  when  Jesus  comes.  The  seed  of  the  woman  set  in  type  by 
Eve  between  Adam  and  Cain.  Now,  just  as  certain  as  these  things 
stand  in  this  connection,  just  so  certain  has  Abraham  got  Indian  blood  in 
him,  and  just  so  certain  has  Hamlin  got  negro  blood  in  him.  By  tracing 
Abraham's  parentage  back  six  to  eight  generations,  you  will  find 
bis  mother  an  Indian  squaw,  and  the  same  with  Hamlin  will  prove 
his  mother  to  have  been  a  black  woman. 

Again  :  these  things  must  be  so  in  order  to  consummate  the  plan  of 
God.  Jesus  comes  the  second  Adam,  and  must  occupj^  the  place  of  the 
first  Adam,  now  occupied  by  Abraham  the  second,  and  therefore  must 
take  the  Book  out  of  the  right  hand  of  Hamlin,  as  the  t3q:)e  set  when 
Jesus  took  the  throne  in  Heaven — Eev.  5  :  6.  Hamlin  representing 
Ishmael,  who  represented  Cain,  who  was  the  first  son  of  Jesus,  when 
first  Adam.  Again:  the  Book  was  a  type  of  the  Sceptre,  and  in  place 
of  taking  the  book  out  of  the  right  hand  of  him  who  represents  the 
black  man,  he  will  take  the  sceptre,  the  power  which  has  been  sealed  up 
in  the  book  with  seven  seals  on  the  back  side,  which,  in  the  next  chapter,  I 
shall  prove  to  be  the  Bible,  God's  Book. 

Again  :  Abraham  and  Ishmael,  and  all  born  in  his  house  were  circum- 
cised in  the  self-same  day. — Gen.  17:  33.  Ishmael  was  thirteen  yeai's 
old  when  he  was  circumcised, — 25th  verse.  Now  keep  in  mind  that 
Buchanan  Avas  the  thirteenth  President,  and  that  he  filled  the  place  of 
Pierce,  who  represented  Judas.  This  leaves  Buchanan's  place  vacant. 
Abraham  occupies  that  place  as  the  first  spirit  natural,  that  is,  coming 
spiritual  in  Jesus.  Hamlin  will  also  occupy  that  place,  and  it  being  the 
thirteenth  will  represent  the  age  of  Ishmael  when  circumcised,  when 
the  letter  will  be  made  to  the  tj'pe  set  in  the  circumcision.  This  will 
take  the  veil  off  the  upper  head  instead  of  the  lower  one.  This  is  the 
veil  which  Moses  put  over  the  people,  and  you  may  rest  assured  it  will 
draw  a  vast  deal  more  blood  than  did  the  taking  off  the  veil  of  the  lower 
head.  I  have  now  got  to  the  end  and  will  leave  the  whole  matter  with 
you  whilst  I  make  a  couple  of  connections  and  a  few  remarks. 

Before  going  any  further,  I  will  notice  Lot's  connection  with  Abi\aham, 
as  you  will  see  in  Genesis,  12th  and  loth  chapters.  I  pointed  out  this 
connection  in  the  Bridegroom,  but  as,  no  doubt,  many  will  read  this  who 
will  never  see  that,  I  will  also  point  it  out  here.  Lot  was  Abraham's 
nephew,  and  therefore  a  cousin  to  Isaac,  and  Esau  and  Jacob  second 


56 

cousins  to  Ammon  and  Moab,  two  sons  born  to  Lot  by  his  two  daughters. 
These  two  children  are  now  represented  by  the  kingdoms  of  Chiria  and 
Japan,  as  proven  in  the  Bridegroom.  Again.  Isaac  was  a  t3'pe  of  Jesus, 
the  second  person  in  the  Trinit}^,  so  when  Jesus  stood  on  earth  he  choso 
the  twelve  Apostles  who  were  the  types  of  our  twelve  Presidents.  Jesus 
next  sent  out  other  seventy,  he  sent  them  out  two  and  two,  without 
shoes,  purse,  or  scrip. — Luke,  10th  chapter.  Just  before  the  crucifixioa 
of  Jesus,  he  said  to  his  disciples,  "  When  I  sent  you  out  wMthout  purse  or 
scrip,  and  shoes,  lacked  ye  anything?  And  they  said,  Nothing.  Then 
said  he  unto  them.  But  now,  he  that  hath  a  purse  let  him  take  it,  and 
likewise  his  scrip,  and  he  that  hath  no  sword,  let  him  sell  his  garment 
and  buy  one.  For  I  say  unto  you,  that  this  that  is  written  must  yet 
be  accomplished  in  me.  And  they  said.  Lord,  behold,  here  are  two 
swords,  and  he  said  unto  them,  it  is  enough." — Luke  22:  35th  to  38th 
verses.  Soon  after  this  Jesus  was  crucified,  when  Matthias  was  elected 
to  fill  the  place  of  Judas.     Keep  these  things  in  mind. 

These  seventy  being  chosen  last,  they  will  come  in  the  Union  after  the 
twelve  had  been  represented,  and  in  the  reign  of  the  thirteenth,  Avho 
was  elected  to  fill  the  place  of  the  twelfth.  Consequently  in  the  last 
year  of  Buchanan's  reign,  the  Embassy  from  Japan  arrived  in  this  Union. 
They  were  seventy  in  number.  They  came  two  and  two,  as  in  that 
kingdom  it  takes  two  to  fill  an  office,  one  to  watch  the  other.  They 
came  without  shoes,  as  not  one  of  them  wore  shoes.  They  came  without 
purse  or  scrip,  as  they  came  at  the  expense  of  the  United  States.  They 
came  bringing  the  veiy  two  swords  which  Jesus  said  was  enough.  These 
they  left  as  a  present  at  Washington,  and  with  them  the  spirit  of  destruc- 
tion, which  will  accomplish  that  that  has  been  written,  and  accomplish 
it,  too,  in  Jesus.  Just  as  he  stated.  I  suppose  you  will  think  this  all 
chance  work. 

Now  I  will  point  out  to  you  this  connection.     You  will  keep  in  mind 
that  the  connections  above  have  all  been  made  from  the  heads  of  the 
given  points,  and  not  the  tail  end.     As  for  instance,  from  Adam,  from 
Abraham,  from  Nebuchadnezzar,  and  Jesus,  and  the  Pope.     But  this 
connection  brings  in  the  tail  end  of  the  antedeluvian  world.     Lot  was 
the  son  of  Haron,  who  was  the  third  spirit  in  the  Trinity,  out  of  which 
Abraham  was  chosen  as  first  spirit  in  the  Trinit}^  of  God's  kingdom,  as 
in  Genesis,  11  chapter.     This  placed  Lot  as  the  spirit  of  the  ghost  dead 
in  the  devil.     Hence  this  Embassy  from  Japan  arrives  here  in  the  last 
year  of  Buchanan's  reign.     Keep  in  mind  in  the  above  connections,  that 
Buchanan  represented  the  ghost  dead  in  the  devil.     This  is  the  reason 
why  Buchanan  did  not  connect  with  Nebuchadnezzar.     Nebuchadnezzar 
had   his  son  as  live  ghost,  hence  he  connects  with  Abraham,  who  repre- 
sents Esau,  who  was  live  ghost  for  the    devil.     Buchanan    also    connects 
with  the  Pope,  but  not  directly;  he  stands  in  the  spirit  of  Spain,  which 
now  has  a  woman  on  the  throne,  Spain  being  in  the  spirit  of  Abel  dead 
in  the  devil.     You   will  see  the  beauty  of  this  connection  in  connecting 
the  end  of  old  things  with  the  type  set  by  the  flood  destroying  the  old 
world.     We  have  now  got  Abraham  and  Lot  here  as  just  shown,  and 
Abraham  trying  to  conquer  Lot.     Again.    Abraham  and  Lot  were  down 
in  Egypt.     This  Embassy  brings  the  spirit  of  Egypt  into   this   Union. 
This  brings  Abraham  to  the  chair  of  State,  when  the  spirit  of  embalming 
is  made  manifest.     I  see  by  the  papers  that  there  are  four  establishments 
for  embalming  the  dead  in  the  army  of  Abraham.     Now  whilst  you  are 
embalming  the  dead  here,  thej^  are  burning  up  those  embalmed  in  Egj^pt 
thousands  of  years  ago.     I  suppose  those  embalmed  here  will  share  a 


57 

similar  fate.  In  this  connection  keep  in  mind  that  Jesus  was  also  down 
in  Egypt,  in  time  of  Herod's  massacre  of  children. — Matthew,  2d  chapter. 
Jesus  will  come  whilst  Abraham  is  making  the  letter  to  this  type,  in  the 
spirit  of  Herod.      These  things,  you  will  see,  all  prove  true  to  the  letter. 

I  proved  to  you  that  Abraham  stands  in  the  spirit  of  France,  as  also 
in  the  spirit  of  England,  when  our  fathers  rebelled.  Louis  iSTapoleon 
was  the  first  man  that  took  the  throne  of  France  after  the  tax-gatherer 
Louis  Phillippe.  Jesus  will  be  the  first  man  who  will  take  this  throne 
after  the  tax-gatherer  Abraham.  Again,  the  Stamp  Act  brought  on  the 
war  with  our  fathers.  Now  this  war  brings  on  the  Stamp  Act,  first  last, 
and  last  first.  Do  you  suppose  that  all  these  things  have  been  chance 
work  ?  Our  fathers  rebelled  against  the  Stamp  Act,  but  our  fathers  are 
not  here  now  j  but  there  are  fothers  here,  and  they  do  not  rebel  against 
the  Stamp  Act.  This  proves  most  conclusively  that  the  spirit  in  En- 
gland then  is  in  the  Union  now.  All  the  w^isdora  in  the  world  cannot 
gainsay  this. 

Before  going  farther  I  must  notice  a  type  just  given,  set  by  Jesus  him- 
self Matt.  12 :  25. — And  Jesus  knew  their  thoughts,  and  said  unto 
them,  every  kingdom  divided  against  itself  is  brought  to  desolation,  and 
every  city  or  house  divided  against  itself  shall  not  stand.  This  type  is 
now  set  upon  earth.  England  is  the  kingdom;  it  was  divided  against 
itself  in  the  birth  of  this  Union,  and  has  stood  divided.  This  Union  is 
the  city  divided  against  itself  As  shown  in  the  Bridegroom,  the  Union 
is  the  city  mentioned  b}'  the  Eevclator  as  being  four  square.  The  South 
is  the  house  now  about  being  divided  against  itself.  If  it  had  its  inde- 
pendence it  would  be  a  city,  but  as  it  has  not  it  is  only  a  house.  Now, 
if  Jesus  uttered  the  truth,  of  which  I  have  not  the  shadow  of  doubt,  then 
these  things  cannot  stand.  Jesus  says  they  shall  not.  Then  you  may 
be  most  certain  that  he  is  close  at  hand. 

Nov?,  when  I  reflect  back  over  what  I  have  written,  I  can  give  a 
prett}'  good  guess  what  some  of  my  readers  will  say.  They  will  say 
"  Thou  old  crazy  fool,  do  you  think  you  can  palm  such  a  doctrine  off  on  the 
people  as  the  truths  of  God's  Book."  Others  will  say,  "  Visionary  old  man, 
I  wonder  if  he  thinks  God  would  choose  such  ignorance  through  whom 
he  would  speak."  Whilst  a  few  might  say,  "  Well,  I  don't  know  why  the 
old  man  may  not  be  as  near  right  as  any  of  them.  They  all  acknow- 
ledge the  Bible  as  a  mysteiy  anyhow,  and  he  stands  as  good  a  chance 
to  be  right  as  any  of  them."  One  thing  they  must  say  about  the  old  man, 
that  cannot  be  said  about  any  other  man  living,  viz  :  His  doctrine  is  en- 
tirely original.  All  I  have  to  say  to  this  is,  God  sa3'S  he  will  choose  the 
foolishness  of  the  world  to  confound  the  wisdom  thereof,  and  the  weak- 
ness to  confound  the  strength.  Eeader,  when  you  look  over  these  con- 
nections and  compare  them  all  carefully  with  the  Bible,  j'ou  cannot  help 
but  see  that  we  have  got  in  this  Union,  standing  where  it  ought  not,  the 
spirit  of  all  the  barbarous  kingdoms  ever  existing  on  earth.  Yes,  we 
don't  even  stop  here,  but  go  back  beyond  the  flood  and  get  the  spirit  of 
all  the  tribes  then  existing,  when  the  wickedness  of  man  had  become  so 
great  that  God  had  to  destro}-  them  with  a  flood,  as  tj^pe  set  in  Gen.,  6th 
chapter.  God  is  now  coming  to  destroy  this  wickedness  with  the  seven 
vials  of  his  Avrath,  set  in  type  as  the  seven  extra  heats  of  Nebuchadnez- 
zar's furnace.  We  have  got  the  murderers  sot  in  tj'pe  by  Cain  the  first 
murderer.  We  have  also" got  the  devil  set  in  type  in  him,  as  given  by 
Jesus.  We  have  got  the  thieves  in  connection  with  the  murderer,  and 
devil.  There  is  scarcely  a  contractor  in  the  army  but  what  is  a  thief 
and  robber,  not  speaking  of  those  outside.  Almost  all  transactions  be- 
5 


58 

tween  man  and  man  have  the  spiritof  thief  and  robber  about  them.  Be- 
sides we  have  the  father  of  lies  here;  the  same  called  by  Jesus  a  liar 
from  the  beginning,  and  of  whom  the  Eevelator  said  should  be  locked  in 
the  bottomless  pit  for  a  thousand  5'ears,  and  then  loosed  for  a  little  sea- 
son. This  little  season  has  arrived,  standing  where  it  ought  not,  and 
from  that  time  the  father  of  lies  has  been  in  full  blast.  Not  one-tenth 
part  of  the  dispatches  received  from  him  are  true.  To-day  a  dispatch 
came  that  contradicted  the  one  of  yesterday  in  manj'  parts.  To-morrow 
one  will  come  contradicting  the  one  of  to-day;  and  thus  it  has  been 
going  on  ever  since  the  father  of  lies  has  been  loose.  Mark,  I  am  not  finding 
fault  with  this.  I  know  it  must  be  so.  I  know  it  cannot  be  helped.  1 
blame  no  one.  Every  one  is  doing  God's  will.  Were  it  not  so  these 
things  set  in  type  six  thousand  years  ago  could  not  now  be  so  completely 
fulfilling. 

Here  I  will  close  this  chapter  as  stated  above,  and  notice  the  twenty- 
three  hundred  daj-s  mentioned  in  Daniel  8  :  14,  in  connection  with  Mil- 
lerism.  You  will  see  that  I  have  not  brought  it  in  in  my  illustration  at 
all.  You  will  see  that  I  have  made  no  calculation  bj^  figures  to  come  to 
the  conclusion  at  which  I  have  arrived.  Millerisra  is  based  entirely 
upon  figures,  and  they  say  the  only  difficulty  in  calculation  is  that  they 
don't  know  when  the  twenty-three  hundred  days  commence.  Miller, 
the  founder  of  the  doctrine  of  Millerism,  thought  he  had  the  time  to  an 
hour.  But  the  poor  fellow  was  disappointed  for  all  that.  The  day  came 
but  no  Jesus  came.  Now,  twenty  years  have  nearly  gone  b}'-,  and  they 
are  still  harping  on  Millerism.  Now,  I  would  like  for  some  of  these  wise 
men  to  tell  the  community  how  a  doctrine  proving  false  twenty  years 
ago  could  be  any  evidence  of  Jesus  coming  now,  or  at  any  future  period. 
I  think  such  a  thing  is  an  absurdity.  Any  doctrine  that  Jesus  has 
proven  as  false  as  this  one  should  never  be  brought  to  light  b}'  thinking 
men.  Most  certainly  none  of  His  children  would  attempt  it;  and  none 
but  those  who  are  ignorant  of  the  doctrine  would  do  it,  inasmuch  as  it 
could  be  no  evidence  of  His  coming.  Jesus  may  come  in  a  month  for  all 
I  know,  and  I  know  He  will  come  before  Abraham  leaves  the  throne; 
but  Millerism  don't  give  me  that  evidence,  neither  can  it  give  anj^  body 
else  that  evidence. 

I  will  now  give  these  people  the  starting  point  for  the  twentj^-three 
hundred  days,  and  I  will  tell  them  how  I  received  it.  8ome  three  months 
since  I  was  in  conversation  with  a  lady  friend  on  the  subject  of  this  doc- 
trine, in  the  course  of  which  Millerism  came  up,  Avhen  she  informed  me 
that  she  had  been  to  hear  several  lectures  on  Millerism.  She  said  the 
speaker  stated  the  only  difficulty  they  had  in  setting  the  precise  time  of 
the  coming  of  Jesus,  was  the  starting  point  for  the  twenty- tl^ree  hundred 
days  ;  when  she  asked  me  if  I  knew  the  starting  point.  1  told  her  that 
I  had  received  the  connections  invariably  without  the  twentj'^-three 
hundred  daj^s.  And  in  my  connections  the  abominations  of  desolation, 
which  was  to  cleanse  the  sanctuary,  must  be  set  up  in  the  j^ear  1866,  by 
France  conquering  England.  And  I  thought  the  twenty-three  hundred 
daj^s  were  only  placed  there  to  puzzle  the  wisdom  of  the  world.  I  fur- 
ther stated  that  with  my  present  knowledge  on  the  prophecy  of  Daniel 
I  could  soon  find  out  the  starting  point. 

Time  passed  on  and  I  thought  no  more  of  the  matter.  Some  four  or 
five  weeks  after,  I  was  sitting  smoking  my  pipe,  and  not  thinking  of 
these  matters  at  all,  when  all  of  a  sudden,  the  division  of  the  seventy 
weeks,  in  the  9th  ch.,  was  put  on  my  tongue  as  the  starting  point  for  the 
twenty-three   hundred  days,  something  in  this  manner  :  The  division  of 


the  seventy  weeks  is  the  beginning  of  the  days.  The  idea  was  inime- 
diately  given  me  that  the  division  of  the  seventy  weeks  was  the  begin- 
ning of-  the  twenty-three  hundred  days.  I  knew  how  the  weeks  were 
divided,  as  I  had  in  Miller's  time,  tried  to  make  some  calculation  mj'self, 
but  all  to  no  purpose.  The  seventy  weeks  are  divided  as  follows  :  first, 
seven  weeks,  then  three  score  and  two  weeks,  and  then  one  week — Dan- 
iel, 9  :  25.  I  then  cast  up  in  my  mind  the  three  score  and  two  weeks, 
and  found  it  to  be  four  hundred  and  thirty-four  years.  Then  I  added 
that  and  1860  together,  in  my  mind,  as  follows:  Eighteen  and  four  make 
twentj'-two,  and  thirty -four  and  sixty-six  make  one  hundred,*  added  to 
the  twenty-two,  made  twenty-three.  And  thus  I  found  it  the  starting 
point  for  the  twenty-three  hundred  days,  closing  with  the  year  1806,  the 
very  year  God  had  given  me  before,  giving  me  double  evidence  of  the 
truth  of  my  doctrine,  and  that  they  were  placed  there  to  puzzle  the  wis- 
dom of  the  world. 

After  I  had  finished  smoking  I  went  to  my  room  and  took  my  Bible, 
and  found  in  it  everything  as  given  me.  I  then,  in  order  to  reconcile 
the  matter  with  the  date  of  the  vision  in  which  the  twenty-three  hun- 
dred da^'s  are  mentioned,  added  the  seven  weeks,  or  forty-nine  years,  to 
the  four  hundred  and  thirty-four,  and  then  added  the  seventy  years,  in 
9th  ch.  2d  verse,  which  gave  me  just  553  years  before  Christ,  the  very 
year  in  which  the  vision  was  had  in  which  Daniel  overheard  the  saints 
speaking  of  the  time,  and  the  answer  twenty-three  hundred  days.  Then 
the  idea  was  given  me  thus  :  If  this  be  correct,  then  the  walls  of  Jeru- 
salem mu.st  have  been  rebuilt,  and  the  Israelites  back  again  in  Jerusalem, 
just  four  hundred  and  thirty-four  years  before  Christ.  I  then  turned  to 
the  last  dates  in  the  book  of  Neh  ,  and  found  it  precisely  four  hundred 
and  thirty-four  years,  and  thus  every  difficulty  in  the  prophec}^  of  Daniel 
harmonized.  Now  my  friends,  the  Millerites  can  get  the  true  starting 
point  for  the  twent^^-three  hundred  days,  direct  from  their  God.  And 
they  can  see  that  Daniel  the  second,  was  right  in  placing  their  end  in 
the  year  66,  without  a  knowledge  of  the  twenty-three  hundred  days. 
Daniel's  God  is  never  wrong. 

Again  :  this  makes  the  year  1863  the  year  when  the  daily  sacrifice  and 
the  sanctuary  shall  be  given  to  desolation,  and  trodden  under  foot,  which 
will  cleanse  the  Sanctuary,  as  in  Daniel,  8  :  13,  14.  The  daily  sacrifice 
referred  to  here  was  that  set  in  type  by  the  sacrificing  of  beasts  in  the 
Jewish  kingdom,  before  the  throne  of  God.  When  Pagan  Eome 
destroyed  the  Jewish  kingdom,  they  received  the  spirit  of  this  sacrifice, 
ivhich  was  probably  modified  some.  This  spirit  was  transferred  to  Papal 
Rome,  and  has  been  continued  to  the  present  day.  Henry  the  eighth,  the 
son  of  the  Pope  spiritual,  changes  the  form  of  worship  a  little,  which  he 
(felled  the  high  church  of  England.  This  was  the  stepping  stone  to 
Protestantism.  The  same,  or  similar  sacrifices  have  been  continued  in 
the  high  church  of  England  unto  this  day.  A  number  of  branches  of 
.hese  worships  are  in  the  Union,  in  which  those  sacrifices  are  offered. 
The  sacmficing  of  beasts  before  the  throne  of  God,  was  typical  of  the 
destruction  of  human  life,  in  the  spirit  of  the  beast,  when  God  comes  to 
take  His  throne  on  earth.  This  has  now  commenced  with  Abraham 
standing  where  it  ought  not,  and  when  the  calamity  has  passed  over,  the 
Sanctuary  will  be  closed.  Five,  six  or  seven  hundred  million  of  human 
beings  swept  from  earth  by  wars,  plagues,  famines  and  pestilence,  in  the 
spirit  of  the  beast,  will  cleanse  the  world,  which  is  the  Sanctuary  re- 
ferred  to,  set  in  type  by  the  most  holy  place  in  the  Tabernacle.     This  is 


60 

the  true  state  of  affairs.     Then   prepare  to  meet  your  God,  for  behold, 
the  Bridegroom  cometh.     My  doctrine  is  not  mine,  but  His  that  sent  me. 

I  will  now  pay  a  brief  notice  to  the  teachings  of  those  people,  showing 
there  is  no  truth  in  them.  This  I  might  however  dispense  with,  inas- 
much as  if  God  is  now  with  Daniel,  it  proves  Millerism,  as  well  as  all 
other  isms,  false  ;  nevertheless  I  shall  proceed  to  the  task.  These  people 
teach  that  God  is  coming  to  take  his  saints  away  in  the  clouds,  and  burn 
up  the  world  and  wicked,  and  at  the  end  of  a  thousand  years  He  is 
coming  back  to  earth,  when  He  will  find  the  earth  purified  and  made  fit 
for  Him  and  His  people.  Then  He  will  resurrect  the  whole  world  of 
mankind,  and  judge  them,  to  know  whether  they  have  merited  their 
punishment,  and  all  who  have  He  will  send  back  to  hell,  there  to  suffer 
through  endless  ages,  and  those  who  have  not  He  will  send  as  parched 
cracklings  to  Heaven  to  enjoy  Him.  Now,  I  ask,  what  would  men  think 
of  a  Judge  on  earth  who  would  condemn  his  prisoners  and  send  them  to 
punishment,  before  knowing  whether  guilty  or  not.  They  would  cer- 
tainly displace  him  very  quick.  To  this  no  doubt  they  will  say,  God 
knows  all  things  beforehand.     If  so,  why  call  them  to  trial  at  all. 

Again  :  They  say  that  God  is  a  God  of  love,  mercy  and  justice.  Just 
think  of  such  a  God  forcing  billions  of  millions  of  human  beings  into 
existence,  then  for  a  few  years  of  sin,  which  they  have  been  foi'ced  into, 
force  them  out  of  existence,  and  force  them  into  an  endless  hell,  there  to 
roast  in  endless  flames.  Why,  sir,  such  a  God  as  that  could  not  be 
equaled  by  the  boiling  down  and  double  distilling  and  concentrating  into 
one  being  all  the  devils  ever  having  existed  on  earth.  Such  a  devil 
would  be  an  object  of  love  and  adoration,  beside  such  a  God.  What 
would  you  think  of  a  father  who  would  torment  a  child  forty  years  for 
the  sin  of  a  single  year?  Why,  sirs,  you  would  say  that  he  was  a  per- 
fect demon,  yet  upon  the  same  principle  you  say  such  a  God  is  a  God  of 
love  and  mercy.  Away  with  such  trash.  It  was  right  in  its  da}',  as 
the  devil  has  been  God's  right  hand  man,  and  as  God  has  been  bringing 
good  out  of  evil,  he  gave  the  devil  this  doctrine  to  frighten  those  who 
would  be  the  wickedest  without,  and  thereby  bring  good  out  of  evil. 
By  this  3^ou  can  tell  whdt  all  the  people  would  have  been  who  believe 
this  doctrine.  God  is  now  coming  to  take  the  devil's  place,  when  all 
, the  doctrines  of  the  devil  must  be  swept  from  earth,  together  with  him- 
self, and  God  with  the  doctrine  given  Daniel,  stand  in  his  place.  Enough 
on  this  head. 

The  strongest  passage  they  have  in  the  Bible  to  prove  that  God  is 
coming  to  take  His  saints  away,  will  be  found  in  Ist  Thes.  4 :  16,  17. 
"  For  the  Lord  himself  shall  descend  from  Heaven  with  a  shout,  with 
the  voice  of  an  archangel,  and  with  the  trump  of  God,  and  the  dead  in 
Christ  shall  rise  first.  Then  we  which  are  alive  and  remain,  shall  be 
caught  up  together  with  them  in  the  clouds,  to  meet  the  Lord  in  the  air, 
and  so  shall  we  ever  be  with  the  Lord."  You  will  see  here  that  there  is 
nothing  said  about  the  Lord  coming  in  the  clouds.  Daniel  saw  one  like 
the  son  of  man  come  in  the  clouds.  Jesus  tells  us  himself  thatj  He  will 
come  in  the  clouds  of  Heaven. 

The  Eevelator  also  says  he  cometh  with  clouds,  1 :  7.  Now  as  this 
coming  does  not  take  place  in  the  clouds,  it  is  not  the  coming  referred  to 
by  the  Revelator,  Jesus  or  Daniel.  But  is  the  same  referred  to  by  the 
Eevelator  in  16 :  15,  which  I  shall  in  the  next  chapter  pi-ove  will  take 
place  when  Jesus  comes  from  this  Union,  which  will  be  his  heaven  then, 
to  the  old  world,  to  fight  the  battle  of  Armageddon.  Being  received  in 
the  cloud  was  set  in  type  by  Moses.     He  ascended  a  mountain  to  enter 


61 

the  cloud.  This  mountain  was  tho  type  of  God's  kingdom.  So  when 
God  comes  in  the  cloud,  and  has  set  up  his  kingdom,  it  will  represent  the 
mountain.  The  people  who  compose  his  kingdom  will  have  been  eleva- 
ted from  the  power  of  the  devil  to  God,  as  was  Moses  elevated  when  on 
the  mountain.  Tho  cloud  will  be  manifested  frequently  during  the  set- 
ting up  of  the  kingdom,  as  it  was  in  the  wilderness,  and  a  great  manifes- 
tation made  when  the  throne  is  moved  to  England,  as  was  the  case  when 
Solomon  dedicated  the  temple  of  old  Jerusalem.  The  resurrection  implied 
in  the  passage  is  simply  the  quickening  to  newness  of  life  those  who 
shall  be  accounted  worthy  of  the  kingdom,  which  will  shake  off  the 
elements  of  the  devil.  They  frequently  quote  another  passage  of  Scrip- 
ture to  show  the  destruction  of  the  world.  2.  Peter,  3  :  10,  12.  "  But 
the  day  of  the  Lord  will  come  as  a  thief  in  the  night,  in  the  which  the 
heavens  shall  pass  away  with  a  great  noise,  and  the  elements  shall  melt 
with  fervent  heat,  the  earth  also  and  the  works  that  are  therein  shall  be 
burned  up.  Looking  forward  and  hasting  unto  the  coming  of  the  day  of 
God,  wherein  the  heavens  being  on  fire  shall  be  dissolved,  and  the 
elements  shall  melt  with  fervent  heat."  I  would  simply  ask  now,  if  the 
heavens  mentioned  here  are  the  heavens  above,  and  the  elements  the 
atmosphere  we  breathe,  where,  in  the  name  of  heaven,  will  the  cloud 
take  the  saints  to?  I  proved  in  the  Bridegroom  that  the  L^nion  was  the 
heaven,  or  kingdom  of  heaven,  and  the  flag  the  new  heaven  seen  by  the 
Eevelator.  And  now  the  germ  has  come  out  of  the  seed  producing 
another  flag  with  stars.  This  makes  heavens,  the  plural.  These 
heavens  are  now  passing  away  with  a  great  noise.  The  noise  of  cannon, 
mortars,  muskets,  drums,  and  armies  tramping,  all  combined,  make  the 
great  noise  referred  to,  and  when  the  Lord  sends  forth  the  noise  of  his 
artillery,  it  finishes  it  up.  The  elements  referred  to  here'are  those  of  the 
devil,  they  must  pass  away  with  the  devil,  by  the  seven  extra  heats  of 
Nebuchadnezzar  sealed  up  in  the  seven  vials  of  God's  wrath,  the  fire  of 
which  has  alread}"  been  kindled  in  the  South,  from  where  it  must  spread 
all  over  the  world.  The  earth  referred  to  here  is  man  made  of  earth, 
out  of  which  all  things  on  earth  have  come,  that  is,  all  things  that  have 
been  made  by  the  hand  of  man,  which  are  to  be  burned  up  with  this  fire, 
and  new  things  take  their  place. 

Again.  In  Isaiah,  34  :  4,  5,  we  have  the  following  :  "  And  all  the  hosts 
of  heaven  shall  be  dissolved,  and  the  heavens  shall  be  rolled  together  as 
a  scroll,  and  all  their  hosts  shall  fall  down,  as  the  leaf  falleth  off  from  the 
vine,  and  as  the  falling  fig  from  the  fig  tree.  For  m}^  sword  shall  be 
bathed  in  heaven;  behold  it  shall  come  down  upon  Idumea  and  of 
the  people  of  my  curse  to  judgment.  This  is  another  passage  quoted 
by  this  people  as  proving  their  doctrine.  The  heavens  are  to  be  rolled 
together  as  a  scroll.  EoUing  up  anything  makes  it  occupy  a  small  space. 
That  is  just  what  is  being  done  now  with  these  heavens,  and  when  all 
the  hosts  of  them  fall  down  as  the  leaf  from  the  vine,  when  two  thirds  of 
the  people  are  swept  from  the  earth,  then  these  heavens  can  occupy  a  much 
smaller  place.  The  Lord  here  says  his  sword  shall  be  bathed  in  heaven. 
I  wonder  if  this  is  the  heaven  these  people  are  going  to  in  the  cloud. 
If  so,  it  cannot  be  a  much  holier  place  than  here.  They  do  not  believe 
this  Union  is  the  heaven  in  which  this  passage  is  now  being  fulfilled,  and 
before  the  strife  ends,  God  will  be  here  and  bathe  his  sword  in  it,  and 
therefore  they  must  believe  that  it  is  the  heaven  they  are  going  to,  or 
the  one  God  will  set  up  when  he  brings  them  back  to  earth.  In  either 
case  it  would  not  be  a  better  one  than  the  one  we  are  now  living  in. 
Thus  it  is  with  all  these  Scriptures  when  properly  explained. 


62 

Once  more.  These  people  tell  you  that  if  you  do  not  keep  the  seventh 
day  as  the  Sabbath,  you  have  the  mark  of  the  beast.  This  is  the  most 
singular  thing  yet  come  to  light.  How  keeping  the  first  day  of  the  week 
for  the  Sabbath,  can  give  any  one  the  mark  of  the  beast,  I  am  at  a  loss  to 
know.  One  thing  I  do  know,  the  seventh  day  was  the  Lord's  day,  hence 
He  gave  it  to  his  chosen  people  for  a  Sabbath,  and  for  them  it  is  their 
only  true  Sabbath.  But  for  my  life,  1  cannot  find  any  place  where  He 
tells  me  that  He  gave  that  day  to  any  Gentile  for  a  Sabbath.  I  also 
find  that  God  begat  Jesus,  and  furthermore,  that  He  had  set  himself  in 
tj'pe  in  the  midst  of  the  six  branches  of  the  golden  candlestick,  in  the 
main  candlestick  as  seventh.  Hence,  His  Son,  Jesus,  is  the  eighth  in  the 
midst  of  the  seven  candlesticks,  and  therefore  his  Sabbath  would  be 
what  would  be  to  the  Jews  the  eighth  day,  or  the  first  day  of  the  week. 
I  also  find  that  Jesus  Avas  crucified  on  Friday,  and  the  spirit  of  God  absent 
on  Saturday,  the  Jewish  Sabbath,  and  again  made  its  appearance  on  the 
first  day  of  the  Jewish  week,  which  becomes  the  Gentile  Sabbath,  the 
Sabbath  of  Jesus,  the  resurrection  day  of  Jesus,  and  of  all  other  days, 
the  one  most  befitting  his  followei's  to  keep  as  the  Sabbath. 

Again.  Jesus  chose  twelve  Jews,  and  afterward  conferred  himself 
upon  Saul  of  Tarsus,  when  he  chose  twelve  Gentiles.  This  was  the 
spiritual  type  of  the  union  of  the  Jew  and  Gentile  nations.  Now,  when 
Jesus  comes  to  make  the  letter  to  this  type,  God  in  his  seven  spirits, 
which  was  the  tj-pe  of  the  seventh  as  the  Jewish  Sabbath,  will  be  in  him, 
and  when  he  confers  himself  upon  the  Gentile  world,  as  the  type  set  in 
Saul,  then  all  the  w^orld  must  come  into  His  Sabbath.  As  the  Father 
comes  in  the  Son,  so  the  Jews  must  come  into  the  Son's  Sabbath.  Then 
I  wonder  where  those  Gentiles  will  be  who  have  fled  to  the  Jews  to  get 
rid  of  the  '•  mark  of  the  beast."  The  very  fact  that  the}-  flee  to  the 
Jews,  implies  that  they  have  the  "mark  of  the  beast,"  and  wish  to  erase 
it  by  fleeing  there.  There  is  no  possible  evidence  to  be  found  proving 
that  the  Jews  will  retain  their  present  Sabbath  when  the  Messiah  comes. 
No,  the}^  themselves  look  for  a  change  when  that  day  comes.  They 
believe  in  the  Triune  God,  the  God  of  Abraham,  Isaac  and  Jacob.  This 
God  being  a  Triune  God,  He  must  come  in  the  second  person,  which 
brings  the  first,  as  also  the  third  spirit,  into  the  second.  This  will  bring 
all  things  into  the  second — into  Jesus,  or  Messiah.  Now,  just  as  true  as 
the  Jews  are  right  in  their  Sabbath,  just  so  true  is  a  Gentile  in  the  spirit 
or  "mark  of  the  beast,"  when  ho  takes  the  Jewish  Sabbath  to  escape  it. 
Let  this  suflice  on  this  point. 

I  will  now  draw  my  remarks  to  a  close,  as  the  reader  can  see  that 
there  can  be  no  evidence  brought  to  prove  such  doctrine.  God  having 
spoken  the  Bible  through  man,  and  now  explaining  them  through  man, 
must  prove  all  other  interpretations  false.  These  people  make  all  their 
calculations  from  the  prophecy  of  Daniel.  I  wish  now  they  would  tell 
3-0U  how  God  will  set  up  the  kingdom  of  which  Daniel  prophecied,  by 
taking  his  saints  to  another  world.  Daniel  says  he  shall  set  up  his  king- 
dom in  the  days  of  these  kings.  They  say  he  will  take  his  people  away 
and  destroy  these  kings.  I  would  like  to  know  how  this  would  be  set- 
ting up  the  kingdom  in  the  days  of  these  kings.  For  Daniel,  if  he  means 
what  he  says,  means  that  these  kings  shall  live  whilst  the  kingdom  in 
question  is  being  set  up.  Furthermore,  how  can  the  kingdom  set  up 
break  in  pieces  and  consume  all  these  kingdoms  unless  it  is  set  up  where 
those  kingdoms  are,  viz — on  earth.  For  most  certainly  Daniel  means  by 
breaking  in  pieces  and  consuming  all  these  kingdoms,  the  destruction  of 
them  as  kingdoms,  and  the  uniting  into  God's  kingdom  such  portions  of 


63 

them  as  he  may  choose.  This  is  the  only  way  the  kingdom  and  domin- 
ion, and  the  gi-eatness  of  the  kingdom  under' the  whoie  heaven,  can  be 
given  to  the  people  of  the  saints  of  the  Most  High,  as  in  Dan.  7  :  27.  I 
ask  again  how  can  this  be  done  if  the  world,  together  with  these  king- 
doms, is  destroyed  ?  Again,  how  can  the  stone  become  a  great  moun- 
tain filling  the  whole  earth,  as  in  Dan.  2:  25,  if  the  earth  is  destroyed  ? 
or  how  will  the  taking  of  the  saints  to  heaven  fill  the  whole  earth  ? 
Such  ideas  are  perfectly  ridiculous  when  compared  with  the  prophecy 
of  Daniel. 

A  few  words  more  and  I  leave  these  people  to  travel  in  the  dark  path 
with  the  veil  over  their  eyes.  Some  two  years  ago,  when  the  paper 
called  the  "  World's  Crisis"  was  about  going  into  operation,  and  having 
a  slight  acquaintance  with  the  editor,  I  concluded  it  would  be  a  good 
chance  to  get  some  short  articles  published.  So  meeting  the  editor  in 
the  street  one  day,  I  asked  him  if  he  would  publish  a  short  article  occa- 
sionally, stating  that  I  had  tried  many  editors,  but  all  refused  as  I  had* 
no  money  to  pay  for  publishing.  He  said  if  I  would  prop  up  my  argu- 
ments with  Scriptural  proofs  "he  would  publish  some  for  me.  1  then 
wrote  out  a  verj-  brief  article  on  the  subject  of  the  New  Jerusalem,  as  in 
the  first  chapter  of  the  Bridegroom,  and'  left  it  with  him  for  some  ten 
days,  when  I  again  received  it  with  a  refusal  to  publish  it.  I  asked  him 
to  give  me  his  reasons  for  refusing  to  publish  it.  He  then  said  your  doc- 
trine is  so  entirely  new  that  I  must  refuse  to  publish  it.  "It  is  a  doc- 
trine," said  he,  "  that  no  other  man  has  ever  attempted  to  prove  from 
the  Scriptures,  and  I  can't  consistently  publish  an}-  thing  but  what  has 
been  advanced  b}-  Ministers  of  the  Gospel  in  present  and  former  ages." 
I  then  said  unto  him  the  Bible  teaches  that  old  things  must  pass  away 
and  new  things  must  take  their  places,  and  that  an  old  doctrine  could 
not  usher  in  a  new  era  in  the  history  of  the  world  ;  that  it  would  require 
a  new  doctrine  to  usher  in  a  new  era  in  the  history  of  the  world,  and 
that  I  thought  that  he  had  better  publish  it.  But  no  ;  he  said  he  would 
publish  nothing  but  old  tbings;  and  thus  I  left  him.  I  have  since  seen 
several  of  his  papers,  and  find  he  holds  his  own  very  Avell,  his  paper 
being  continuall}'  filled  with  old  matter.  Not  a  word  of  new  in  it.  Well, 
I  don't  blame  him.  The  Lord  don't  give  him  anything  new,  and  the 
devil  has  none  to  give,  and  therefore  he  must  be  satisfied  with  what  he 
has.     Peace  be  with  him! 

I  thought  of  closing  here,  but  the  Lord  says  I  must  show  them  that 
their  hell  is  a  false  one,  and  the  onU'  hell  he  has  is  the  grave.  The  grave 
is  the  natural  hell,  and  dragon's  reign  is  the  spiritual  .hell.  There  is  a 
natural  hell,  and  a  spiritual  hell.  A  natural  devil,  and  a  spiritual  devil. 
And  a  natural  heaven,  and  a  spiritual  heaven.  And  a  natural  God,  and 
a  spiritual  god.     These  tbings  an-e  all  true,  as  I  shall  now  prove. 

In  Eevelation,  1  :  18,  we  have  tbe  following  words,  from  him  that  sat 
in  the  midst  of  the  seven  golden  candlesticks  :  "  I  am  He  that  liveth 
and  was  dead,  and  behold,  1  am  alive  forevermore.  Amen,  and  have  the 
keys  of  death  and  of  hell."  You  see  that  this  personage  was  Jesus. 
He  has  the  ke3's  of  death  and  of  hell.  A  man  having  keys,  implies  that 
he  has  something  locked  up  with  them.  So  with  Jesus  ;  he  has  the  keys 
of  hell  and  death.  Now,  when  He  comes  He  will  unlock  death  and  hell. 
How  will  He  unlock  them  ?  Simply  by  slaying  men.  We  know  of 
death  in  no  sense,  only  by  the  destruction  of  life;  this  constitutes  death. 
So,  if  after  Jesus  comes,  a  hundred  die  to  one  now,  then  death  will  be 
unlocked,  and  will  roam  about  doing  its  work.  Suppose  you  had  a  hun- 
dred  murderers  locked  up  in  prison,  and  you  was  to  unlock  the  prison, 


64 

the  murderers  would  roam  at  large,  and  murderers  would  be  plenty,  a 
hundred  to  where  would  not  be  one  if  kept  locked  up;  just  so  with 
death.  This,  unlocking  of  death  unlocks  hell,  makes  subjects  for  the 
grave.  For  every  additional  hundred  of  deaths,  you  must  have  the 
same  number  of  graves.  This  places  death  and  hell  together,  death  in 
hell,  hence  Jesus  has  the  keys  of  both. 

Again  :  Eev.  6:8.  ''I  looked  and  beheld  a  pale  horse,  and  his  name 
was  Death,  and  hell  followed  with  him."  This,  you  will  see,  took  j^laee 
when  the  fourth  seal  of  the  book  was  opened  in  Heaven.  .N"ow,  keep  in 
mind  that  this  same  personage  who  had  the  keys  of  hell  and  death,  took 
the  throne  in  Heaven,  and  opened  the  seals  of  the  book,  and  when  the 
fourth  seal  was  opened.  Death  was  the  name  of  him  on  the  pale  horse, 
and  hell  followed  with  him.  Here  you  see  that  the  seven  seals  of  the 
book  were  the  locks,  and  he  unlocked  them  with  the  keys.  This  sets 
the  tj'pe  of  death  and  hell  loose  in  Heaven.  So  when  Jesus  comes  and 
takes  the  throne  on  earth,  but  still  in  the  Heaven  in  which  the  type  was 
set,  as  the  Kevelator  saw  it  descend  out  of  Heaven  from  God,  he  will 
■make  the  letter  to  the  type,  when  death  being  loose,  will  follow  with  him 
on  the  pale  horse,  when  hell  will  follow  with  the  army.  Most  certainly 
an  endless  hell  in  a  future  world  can't  follow  anybody.  Eeader,  you 
certainly  can't  help  but  see  this. 

Once  more — Isaiah,  14  :  9.  "  Hell  from  beneath  is  moved  for  thee  to 
meet  thee  at  thy  coming;  it  stirreth  up  the  dead  for  thee,  even  all  the 
chief  ones  of  the  earth,  it  hath  raised  up  fi'om  their  thrones  all  the  kings 
of  the  nations."  This  passage,  you  will  see,  stands  in  connection  with 
the  cutting  down  of  Lucifer,  son  of  the  morning,  and  casting  the  abom- 
inable branch  out  without  a  burial.  This  Lucifer  is  the  people,  and  the 
branch  the  Church.  This  takes  place  at  the  battle  of  Armageddon, 
M^hen  millions  will  be  slain  with  the  seven  vials  of  wrath,  through  the 
world,  as  in  Jer.  25:  33.  "  And  the  slain  of  the  Lord  shall  be  in  that 
day,  from  one  end  of  the  earth,  even  unto  the  other  end  of  the  earth, 
they  shall  not  be  lamented,  neither  gathered,  nor  buried.  They  shall  be 
dung  upon  the  earth."  This  is  why  the  prophet  said,  "  Hell  has  come  up 
to  meet  you.  You  don't  dig  graves  to  bury  them  ;  they  rot  upon  the 
earth.  Hell  has  come  up  on  top  of  the  earth."  Thus,  you  can't  help 
but  see  that  the  grave  is  the  Scripture  hell,  and  that  Jesus  has  the  keys 
to  both.  If  our  friends'  doctrine  of  God  burning  up  the  earth  with  all 
the  kingdoms  on  it,  be  true,  then  these  people  mentioned  here  as  cast 
out  without  a  burial,  can't  become  dung  upon  the  earth;  hence  the 
prophet  Avill  have  lied.  I  could  cite  yoi:  to  many  more  Scriptures  on  this 
subject,  but  let  this  suffice  for  the  present. 

The  dragon's  kingdom  is  spiritual  hell.  The  dragon  is  that  spirit 
which  makes  man  a  devil  natural.  And  when  men  confer  that  spirit 
upon  one  man  b}^  votes,  or  any  other  process,  and  make  him  rule  over 
them,  then  he  stands  as  spiritual  devil,  and  his  reign  is  spiritual  hell — 
such  as  we  are  now  in — and  such  as  the  whole  world  will  be  in  before 
this  strife  closes.  I  stated  above  that  the  Democratic  party  stood  as  God 
natural.  When  they  placed  a  man  in  power  to  rule  over  them,  then  he 
ruled  in  the  spirit  of  the  natural  God,  and  the  people  he  would  govern 
would  constitute  heaven  natural.  That  spirit  ruling  dui'ing  the  thirteen 
Presidents,  makes  it  heaven.  This  heaven  has  now  become  spiritual 
hell.  So  when  spiritual  God  comes  and  destroys  spiritual  hell,  by 
destroying  that  spirit  that  makes  it  such,  then  it  will  be  spiritual  heaven, 
and  God  in  it,  and  natural  hell  filled  to  overflowing.  This  is  the  sum  of 
the  matter  in  a  few  words.

I  will  now  close  b}'  stating  that  the  chapter  on  the  Revelation,  will 
doubl}^  prove  all  1  have  here  stated.  Besides,  it  will  show  the  connection 
of  the  throne  of  England  with  a  number  of  our  Presidents,  at  least  with 
every  one  from  Polk  to  Abraham,  showing  that  the  fulfillment  of  the 
Revelation  will  bo  the  selling  up  of  God's  kingdom.  And  in  that  chap- 
ter, the  connections  with  Daniel's  prophecy  will  be  again  pointed  out. 

Adieu,  for  the  present. 

DANIEL  LEIBEE.
